Australia -- New South Wales Weather Update

MELBOURNE - Nov 25/15 - 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 near New Zealand extends a ridge into northern New South Wales, while a vigorous cold front south of the Bight moves eastwards. This pattern is drawing hot northwesterly winds from central Australia into New South Wales, which will moderate in southern districts during Thursday as the front passes through. Hot and gusty conditions will remain in most northern and central districts through Thursday, with the front expected to reach the state's northeast corner early Friday. Behind this, a weak ridge is expected to develop across New South Wales before a new high pressure centre forms over the Tasman Sea, restricting any shower activity to areas east of the Divide during the following few days.
