Norfolk Island Forecast
Issued at 5:00 am EDT Friday on 27 February 2015

Nil.
Weather Situation
A slow-moving high pressure system near New Zealand extends a ridge to the east
coast of Australia, while a low pressure system over Coral Sea is extending a
trough toward the northeastern Tasman Sea. As these systems are slow moving,
these systems will maintain a steady weather pattern with fresh east to
southeasterly airstream over Norfolk Island for the next couple of days, then
increasing shower activities and strengthening winds are expected from Sunday as
the trough associated with the low deepens and makes its way to the west and
starts affecting Norfolk Island.
