Weather Situation
A high over the Bight will extend a ridge across Tasmania today, while an area of low pressure persists to the north. The high will move to the northwest of Tasmania during Saturday, as a cold front passes to the south, before weakening just to the west of the state on Sunday as a new high develops near the east. This high will remain to the east of Tasmania on Monday as winds tend warmer northerly over the state.
