Weather Situation
A high pressure system developing over the western Tasman Sea is strengthening a ridge across eastern New South Wales, promoting generally fine and stable conditions in most districts today. This high is forecast to be the dominant synoptic feature through the weekend, moving only very slowly to the east. A new trough is expected to reach western parts of New South Wales later on the weekend, with unsettled conditions again developing ahead of it. The passage of a cold front early next week is expected to bring further rainfall, although the movement of this is currently uncertain.
