Weather situation

A strong high pressure ridge centred over the Bight will move eastwards to lie over the Tasman Sea by the weekend. Showers and fresh southerly winds about coastal parts will ease during the weekend as the high moves east. Temperatures will warm across the state during the weekend as winds turn more northerly ahead of a weak trough which will push into far west by late Sunday.
