Weather Situation
A low centred over Victoria extends a trough across inland New South Wales and Queensland. The trough is expected to move slowly towards the Tasman Sea today and Monday, closely followed by a cold front. Rain across the southern inland will ease to showers as the system progresses east, with thunderstorms contracting to the northeast of the state by this evening as cooler air moves across from the west. Showery conditions are likely to remain over southern and eastern districts early in the new week under the influence of an upper level trough.
Forecast for the rest of Sunday
Fine and partly cloudy in the northwest and on the north coast. Areas of rain over the southern inland, easing to showers in the afternoon. Showers over the remainder, with isolated thunderstorms in the eastern half, chiefly in the afternoon. Northeast to northwest winds in the east. Cooler west to southwest winds spreading through the west and south.
Forecast for Monday
Fine though partly cloudy in the west. Scattered showers and possible thunderstorms over the northeast, except for the far north coast. Isolated showers elsewhere, tending scattered along the coast. Northerly winds in the northeast, with west to southwesterly winds elsewhere.
Forecast for Tuesday
Isolated showers over the southern border districts and along the coast and ranges, tending scattered in the far northeast. Southwest to southeast winds.
Forecast for Wednesday
Isolated showers in the southeast. Mostly sunny over the remainder. Southwest to southeast winds.
The next routine forecast will be issued at 4:30 pm EDT Sunday.
