Weather Situation
A low-pressure system lies over the Tasman Sea and continues to head eastwards, while a high-pressure ridge extends across the state's west. On Tuesday, a cold front looks set to approach the far south coast and continues to move northwards as it weakens to a trough, crossing the remainder of the coast between Wednesday and Thursday before reaching southeast Queensland coast later this week. This will be followed by a strong high pressure system drifting across Bass Strait later this week, that will maintain onshore east to southeasterly airstream across the east.
