Australia -- New South Wales Weather Update

MELBOURNE - Nov 19/14 - 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 centred near Victorian coast extends a ridge into New South Wales. This will promote generally fine weather for today, apart from a few showers and thunderstorms in the far northeast where a weak trough is present. On Wednesday night the high will shift east to the Tasman Sea and become dominant, bringing a return to hotter northerly winds during the second half of the week. A trough developing in the southwest later Thursday and moving through to central NSW Friday is not expected to be strong enough to bring any meaningful rainfall or significant cooling so hot conditions will continue through the weekend in most areas. A strong cool change is expected early next week.
