Australia -- New South Wales Weather Update

MELBOURNE - Nov 15/14 - SNS -- The current forecast for the state of New South Wales was released by Australia's Bureau of Meteorology.

Weather Situation
A weak trough and associated south to southwesterly change lie from the central north of the state to the Mid North Coast, and will slowly shift towards the northeast tonight. Another hot day is expected n the far northeast tomorrow before this trough crosses the region in the evening. A second trough, currently near Adelaide, will move east tonight and Sunday morning, bringing some rain to most southern and central districts, but particularly the southeast. A low developing within this trough is expected to skirt the southern border region overnight then deepen off the far south coast Sunday morning, before moving steadily away to the east later Sunday. Strong westerly winds are expected through much of the east tomorrow, turning cooler southwest to southerly over the southeast as the low moves away and a high pressure ridge develops across the state.
