Weather Situation
A trough and associated cold front will continue moving across the state today. Unsettled conditions are expected to accompany the passage of this system across eastern and northern districts. Behind this, a cooler and drier air mass will spread across the state as a ridge pushes across from the west, with any lingering showers becoming confined to the northeast by Friday. Much of the state is likely to experience fairly clear skies through the weekend as the high becomes dominant, although the presence of a weak trough over the northeast may see some shower activity sustained there.
Forecast for the rest of Thursday
Showers clearing over central and southeastern parts, extending to the northeast. Chance early thunderstorms in the southeast, afternoon thunderstorms developing in the northeast. Early fog patches in the east. A cool, fresh southerly change extending throughout, strong and gusty near the southern coast.
Forecast for Friday
Isolated showers and the chance of afternoon thunderstorms in the northeast. Mostly sunny over the remainder. South to southeast winds.
Forecast for Saturday
Isolated showers in the northeast, tending scattered near the Queensland border. Mostly sunny over the remainder. Southeasterly to easterly winds throughout.
Forecast for Sunday
Isolated showers in the east, particularly the north coast, and possibly about the far northwest. East to northeast winds, fresh on the north coast.
The next routine forecast will be issued at 4:30 pm EDT Thursday.
