Weather situation

A broad inland trough extending from central Queensland into central New South Wales is forecast to persist until Friday. Meanwhile, another trough off the north coast is forecast to deepen to a low pressure system today before moving offshore from Friday. Following this, a strong cold front is expected to cross the state during the weekend, possibly forming another trough off the NSW coast in its wake early next week.
