The taste of summer was short lived for Perth with wet and wild weather moving in on Thursday a day after the city enjoyed temperatures over 30 degrees.

On Wednesday people were able to take a first dip in the ocean at 32 degrees, marking it the day with the highest temperature at the earliest time in spring since records started.



But on Thursday late morning rain had moved in over the city and the weather couldn't look any more bleak coming into the weekend.



Weatherzone forecaster Rob Sharpe said Perth can expect cold, wet and windy conditions.



"A cold front is arriving late this morning and will be bringing gusty winds and showers through the late morning and early afternoon before easing later into the afternoon and evening," he said.



"The gusty and showery conditions will continue on Friday and Saturday.



"Late Friday and early Saturday is going to be the worst conditions as another frontal system moves through the region."

There could even be some hail in the mix according to the forecast by the Bureau of Meteorology.



Unfortunately the wet weather is coinciding with the two qualifying AFL finals bouts in the West, so those going to the Eagles game on Friday and the Dockers on Saturday should pack a poncho.
