Rain and thunderstorms, with severe thunderstorms in WA, Queensland and New South Wales, will be the focus of our weekend forecast right around the country for November 14 and November 15.
So firstly, looking at tomorrow, Saturday the 14th of November.
You can see widespread thunderstorms and rain across eastern parts of Australia, with also showers into Victoria.
Rain and storms in New South Wales and Queensland.
Thunderstorms across much of northern Australia, and also rain and thunderstorms developing through parts of WA as well, while a ridge will move up into central parts of the country and also into south-eastern areas.
Now let's look at all this in more detail.
Firstly, in Queensland we'll see another round of rain and showers and thunderstorms through much of south-eastern Queensland and the southern interior as well, with widespread thunderstorms in the afternoon and evening likely to be severe with large hail, damaging winds and heavy rainfall.
And those thunderstorms will extend all the way up into north-western Queensland during the afternoon and evening as well. The heat continues across much of northern and western areas.
Temperatures in the high 30s to low 40s through northern and western areas.
Into the low 30s through our coastal areas and high 20s through south-eastern Queensland. Brisbane looking at showers and thunderstorms, 28 degrees.
Severe thunderstorms likely there on Saturday, particularly west and south of the city, with large hail, damaging winds and heavy rainfall, with flash flooding being the main risk.
Moving down into New South Wales, and continuing this humid and stormy weather through much of eastern parts of New South Wales ahead of a trough line, particularly during the afternoon and evening, with widespread rain and thunderstorms likely.
Thunderstorms expected for many areas on and east of this trough you see here, but west of this trough it will be dry and partly cloudy.
Temperatures generally in the low to mid 30s for much of the state, getting into the high 20s through southern and south-eastern parts of New South Wales.
Sydney looking at showers and thunderstorms, 31 degrees.
Severe thunderstorms again likely there in the afternoon and evening with local hail, sorry, large hail, damaging winds and heavy rainfall.
Canberra also likely to see a few showers as well and 27 degrees.
Moving down into Victoria and we'll see showers and maybe an isolated thunderstorm moving through in the early hours, but that clears out into the afternoon.
Could see further showers and thunderstorms through eastern and north-eastern Victoria during the afternoon and evening, but that will then clear much of the state.
Temperatures generally mild to cool to mild for this time of year.
High teens in the south, low to mid 20s in the north, and maybe even a bit hotter in the north-west with more sunshine up there.
Melbourne looking to some morning showers, clearing and 18 degrees.
Moving down into Tasmania, and fairly mild there as we move through the day.
We've got some morning though rain and isolated thunderstorms during the morning and early afternoon. That'll clear out into the afternoon hours and generally a mild day.
Temperatures in the high teens to low 20s to the north and east. A little bit cooler in the west as well.
And then we'll see those showers redevelop in the afternoon and evening about the west and south-west. Few showers here and there, but long fine breaks, 20 degrees in Hobart.
Moving up into South Australia, and they are between weather systems, so it's going to be fairly dry for much of the state and pretty cool as well for this time of year.
Temperatures in the low 20s in the south. Heat really in the far north at 38 degrees up there at Moomba, but generally high 20s to low 30s through inland areas.
Morning cloud and gusty winds through southern areas, but generally staying dry. Adelaide looking at a partly cloudy 21 degrees.
Moving over into Western Australia, and while those on the west coast should be fine, warm and partly cloudy, we'll see showers, rain and thunderstorms developing through inland areas as this trough deepens during the day on Saturday, so we could see widespread showers and thunderstorms, and maybe some of them might creep into the Perth area late in the day in the afternoon and evening hours as well. Watch out for that.
Probably a higher chance on the Scarp rather than on the coastal areas, but definitely watch the radar during the afternoon and evening. But much of the Wheatbelt will see showers and thunderstorms as well.
Temperatures generally in the low 20s across our coastal areas, mid 20s through inland areas and along the west coast, getting up into the low to mid 30s through the Pilbara area.
Perth looking at 28 degrees there, possible shower and maybe a storm on the hills as well, so watch for that, but more action through inland areas.
Moving up into the Northern Territory. It's hot, it's humid, it's stormy, it must be build-up.
And that's what's going on across much of the Northern Territory, with afternoon showers and thunderstorms through many areas as well, through much of the state from the Gulf right across the Top End, northern and central areas, and even across much of the Kimberley as well, showers and thunderstorms.
Temperatures in the high 30s to low 40s throughout inland areas and low to mid 30s throughout coastal areas as well.
Low 30s in the south and then high 30s in the north. Darwin looking at afternoon showers and thunderstorms, 35 degrees.
And for those heading out and about on Sunday around the country, very similar conditions for many.
Another round of showers, rain and thunderstorms, there we go.
Showers, rain and thunderstorms for our eastern parts of the country and continuing right across the tropical north and through inland parts of WA.
Showers and thunderstorms once again, some severe, 30 degrees in Brisbane. Showers and cooler in Sydney, 23. 25 and showers in Canberra.
15 and showers in Hobart, getting pretty chilly down there.
17 with a few showers in Melbourne on Sunday, even colder on Monday. 21 with a possible shower in Adelaide.
28 and partly cloudy in Perth. Hot, humid and stormy and 34 in Darwin.
So if you’re out and about this weekend, particularly through much of the country experiencing this shower, thunderstorm activity and severe thunderstorms, make sure you get the latest forecast and warnings for your area on our website, app and social media.
Track the storms on radar and we're back here next week with your weekday forecast.
