Forecast issued at 4:34 pm EST on Tuesday 29 July 2014.
Weather Situation
A ridge of high pressure lies across northern New South Wales, while a series of cold fronts are moving from the Southern Ocean across southeast Australia. The passing of these fronts is generating gusty winds over southern and central parts of the state, but little rainfall due to the presence of a generally dry airmass. A stronger cold front is forecast to bring a significant cold snap at the end of the week, after which conditions should gradually ease as the next high pressure system becomes established.
Forecast for the rest of Tuesday
Mostly clear. Winds westerly 35 to 55 km/h decreasing to 25 to 40 km/h in the late evening.
