Australia -- New South Wales Weather Update

MELBOURNE - Oct 1/12 - SNS -- The current forecast for the state of New South Wales was released by Australia's Bureau of Meteorology.

Weather Situation
A strong high pressure system centred near Adelaide extends a ridge across New South Wales to the northern Tasman Sea. This high will drift slowly east during the next few days, maintaining fine and stable weather in most districts, with conditions gradually warming as northerly winds develop. By Thursday, the high is expected to be weakening over the Tasman Sea, allowing a trough and associated cold front to move from the Southern Ocean towards western New South Wales. This frontal system is forecast to bring a cool change to the state on Friday and Saturday, although at this stage appears unlikely to generate significant rain.
