Australia -- New South Wales Weather Update

MELBOURNE - Nov 16/14 - SNS -- The current forecast for the state of New South Wales was released by Australia's Bureau of Meteorology.

Weather Situation
A high pressure system over the Bight extends a ridge into New South Wales today in the wake of a cold front which affected the region during the weekend. This will promote generally fine weather in the region during the next day or two, apart from the odd shower or two near the coast as a weak trough develops over the east. This trough is expected to decay early Wednesday as the high shifts east to the Tasman Sea and becomes dominant, bringing a bring a return to warmer northerly winds during the second half of the week. By Thursday most of the state's northern and central districts should again be experiencing quite hot days, with another trough developing in the west likely to create some unsettled weather but no significant cooling.
