Australia -- New South Wales Weather Update

MELBOURNE - Jan 21/15 - SNS -- The current forecast for the state of New South Wales was released by Australia's Bureau of Meteorology.

Weather Situation

A low pressure centre centred the northwest corner today, will remain slow moving through the rest of the week. In combination with the Tasman Sea high, this pattern should assist in the generation of showers or rain across most central and eastern districts.
