Weather situation

A high over the Tasman Sea directs a northeasterly flow through northern and eastern parts of the State. A cold front and trough passing through the Tasman Sea will bring a south to southeasterly change during the weekend, followed by a new high pressure centre crossing Tasmania early next week and extending a ridge northward into NSW.
