Weather situation

A high pressure system over Queensland is drifting towards the southern Coral Sea while a deep complex low pressure system over the Bight is slowly heading east. A cold front associated with the low is forecast to enter the state's west early this morning and continue crossing the state through the day today and early Wednesday. Gusty westerly winds will continue mid to late this week as the low moves across Tasmania and enters the southwestern Tasman Sea, followed by the second cold front crossing the state on Friday. Then, a strong high pressure system looks set to move across the state, bringing stable weather patterns during the weekend into early next week.
