Weather situation

A slow-moving high pressure system currently south of Victoria will continue to gradually move eastwards, promoting generally benign and stable weather conditions in New South Wales over the weekend. By Monday onwards the high is expected to move over the southern Tasman Sea maintaining a ridge over the state. The next cold front is expected to reach the state by Friday.
