Forecast issued at 4:30 pm EST on Monday 15 August 2022.
Weather Situation
A deep low centred near Tasmania is directing cool westerly winds and showers across southern and central New South Wales, while a ridge of high pressure over Queensland promotes mostly fine conditions in the north. The low is forecast to weaken and move away during Tuesday. This will allow a ridge to extend over New South Wales during Tuesday and Wednesday, leading to cooler mornings but fine weather mid-week. A cold front is forecast to reach the state's west later Thursday, continuing through the east on Friday.
Forecast for the rest of Monday
Partly cloudy. Medium (60%) chance of showers about the ranges, near zero chance elsewhere. Snow falling above 1200 metres. Winds west to northwesterly 20 to 30 km/h.
