Northerly winds develop during Wednesday, becoming strong and gusty in the evening, as the high moves to the east of Tasmania and a complex area of low pressure moves across the Bight. A cold front is expected to cross Tasmania on Thursday with the gusty northerly winds turning westerly and easing as it passes.
