Australia -- New South Wales Weather Update

MELBOURNE - Apr 15/13 - SNS -- The current forecast for the state of New South Wales was released by Australia's Bureau of Meteorology.

Weather Situation
A low pressure trough over northeastern New South Wales will weaken later today as a high pressure system south of the Bight extends a ridge into the state's west. This high is forecast to move slowly east over the next few days, strengthening a ridge over New South Wales during the second half of the week. This is expected to restrict any shower activity to areas near the coast, until the next trough moves over the region later on the weekend.
