Weather situation

A strong high pressure system over the southern Tasman Sea will bring coastal showers to New South Wales today. A trough over central Australia is expected to bring unstable conditions to the state's far west. This system will become mobile and move across the inland plains throughout today and shift to the western slopes and northeast during Monday and Tuesday. The system then may deepen into a low pressure system over the Tasman Sea mid week next week.
