Australia -- New South Wales Weather Update

MELBOURNE - Nov 21/14 - SNS -- The current forecast for the state of New South Wales was released by Australia's Bureau of Meteorology.

Weather Situation
A stationary high pressure system over the northern Tasman Sea extends a ridge towards the Queensland coast, while a trough of low pressure stretches from northwest to southeastern New South Wales. This trough is forecast to stall and decay over the northeast early Saturday as a high pressure ridge again becomes dominant in the region. Another trough looks set to develop over the state's south and west later Saturday and Sunday, bringing unsettled conditions to many districts although rainfall totals are unlikely to be significant. Throughout this period much of New South Wales will experience persistently hot days, although some relief appears likely early next week in the form of a more substantial cold front which should return temperatures to closer to average.
