No warnings for Queensland
Forecast issued at 4:15 pm EST on Friday 26 September 2025.
Weather Situation
A high moving slowly eastwards across the Tasman Sea will lead to a weakening ridge across Queensland. During this weekend, a trough well offshore in the Coral Sea will lead to isolated showers brushing the central and northern Queensland coasts. A separate weak trough will cross southern Queensland on Sunday and Monday, combining with the ridge to bring much warmer conditions across most of the state. In its wake a weak high will move to the south of Queensland before a third trough enters the southwest of the state of Tuesday, maintaining those warmer conditions.
Forecast for the rest of Friday
Clear. Winds east to northeasterly 15 to 25 km/h becoming light in the late evening.
