Weather situation

A low pressure system near Tasmania is slow-moving, with its associated trough brushing the state's southeast and east today. This system will gradually contract to the Tasman Sea and weaken, as a high enters the state's west and moves across the state over the next few days. A strong cold front is then forecast to cross the state during the weekend into early next week, bringing a return to wet and windy conditions.
