Weather situation

A strong high pressure system over the southern Tasman Sea will continue to slowly drift further east towards New Zealand over the coming days. The high, together with a weak trough near the NSW north coast, will maintain an onshore easterly airstream and showery conditions for coastal areas. Meanwhile, another trough is developing over central Australia, bringing unstable conditions to the state's far west. This system will become mobile and move across the west of the state during the weekend and shifting to eastern areas early next week.
