Weather Situation
A vigorous southerly change, associated with a deepening low pressure system over the Tasman Sea, is moving through the northern half of the coast and towards the northern border today. After this, a high south of the Bight is forecast to extend a ridge along the coast, and looks set to remain the dominant feature in the region through much of the week. On Friday, a cold front may reinforce southerly winds as it crosses the southern Tasman Sea.
