South-east Australia basks in record temperatures but polar blast coming

Southeast Australia shattered May temperature records Friday, with Adelaide reaching 30 degrees Celsius and Hobart setting its warmest May day since 1894. A polar air mass arrives Wednesday, potentially bringing snow to low elevations and temperatures plummeting 15 degrees within a week. The dramatic shift follows a blocking high-pressure system that kept cold fronts away for two weeks.
