A high pressure system over the Tasman Sea will extend a firm ridge and a moderate to fresh southeasterly wind flow into southern Queensland waters during today. The ridge should then weaken from Wednesday as the high centre shifts further east towards New Zealand. Winds should tend more northeasterly on Thursday and Friday ahead of a trough moving north along the New South Wales coast. This trough may move through far southern Queensland waters late on Friday evening.
