Weather situation

A broad high pressure system moving east of the Tasman Sea extends a ridge over the north east of the state. Meanwhile, a cold front and associated trough is forecast to bringing warm and gusty westerly winds to central and southern parts of the state today. A weak high pressure ridge will drift over the state later today, ahead of a series of fronts crossing the state during the weekend.
