Weather situation

A high-pressure ridge strengthens from the west ahead of a strong cold front expected to cross the state on Thursday, bringing cold, wintry conditions in its wake. Generally stable weather conditions will follow during the weekend through to early next week as a strong high-pressure system moves over the Bight and extends a ridge over the state while slowly drifting eastwards.
