Weather Situation
A high pressure system near New Zealand, together with an inland trough, are bringing moist northeasterly airstream across the state. Then, a strong cold front and its associated trough will cross the state midweek before heading offshore and forming a a low pressure system off the coast later this week. Wet and windy conditions will persist along the coast and adjacent ranges during the later part of the week through the weekend as the low and another high pressure system drifting to the south maintain fresh to strong onshore southeasterly airstream.
