What drives Lockleys weather?
Lockleys sits on the Adelaide Plains, about 6 kilometres west of the city centre. Its climate is Mediterranean: warm, dry summers and cool, wet winters. The Gulf St Vincent provides a moderating influence, meaning summer highs are usually a degree or two lower than inland suburbs. Cold fronts from the Southern Ocean bring the bulk of winter rain between May and August.
