Forecast issued at 5:41 am EST on Thursday 23 May 2013.
Weather Situation
A high pressure system over Western Australia currently extends a ridge over Tasmania while a cold front is passing south of the Bight, expected to push the ridge northwards this evening. The front is expected to cross Tasmania on Friday morning, bringing a westerly change, followed by a second front at night as the high moves over the Bight. A low will then pass to the south during Saturday, maintaining a vigorous westerly airflow. West to southwesterly flow should persist on Sunday as the high moves near Adelaide and another cold front approaches from the southwest.
Forecast for the rest of Thursday
Areas of fog and patches of frost this morning. Sunny afternoon. Winds light west to northwesterly. Daytime maximum temperatures between 9 and 14.
No UV Alert, UV Index predicted to reach 1 [Low]
