Hello, Sarah from the bureau here with your National Weather Forecast for tomorrow. So that's Wednesday, the 29th of July.
So we'll start off by taking a look at tomorrow's weather map. Scattered showers with possible small hail will continue across the south-east, but will ease throughout the day as that cold front and trough make its way out into the Tasman Sea.
Showers are also expected to ease across eastern parts of the country. A much drier air mass pushes into southern parts of Queensland, while elsewhere across the country, the weather will be dominated by this strong and slow-moving high pressure system that will bring generally settled and dry weather with just some morning fog and frost patches for inland southern parts.
So let's go around the country now taking a closer look state by state. We will start off with Queensland.
Scattered showers are expected north of about Longreach, but they'll become more isolated throughout the day as that dry air really starts to push in. There's also a risk of a very light shower, generally about the coastal fringe of the east coast.
Maximum temperatures in the low to mid 20s, but riding up to the low 30s as we head into the northern tropics. For Brisbane, the chance of morning fog clearing to a sunny afternoon and a top of 24 °C.
Moving on to New South Wales, scattered showers are expected across the south-east, mainly about the windward slopes and the ranges, falling as snow above 800 m and starting to ease later in the day.
The daytime temperatures across the south in the low teens, but it's going to feel a lot colder than that thanks to the wind-chill factor, with gusty westerly winds. Elsewhere across the state, dry and partly cloudy with maximum temperatures in the high teens, but grading into the low 20s as we head to the northern coastal areas.
For Sydney, a mostly sunny day and top of 19 °C, while for Canberra a possible early shower, then a maximum of just 10 °C.
Moving down to Victoria, scattered showers, generally on and south of the ranges, with possible small hail about the south-western central districts, but those showers are expected to clear from the west throughout the day, contracting into the east and then easing during the evening.
The daytime temperatures in the low teens to the mid-teens as we head further north, but it is going to feel a lot colder than that due to that wind chill factor, with gusty south-westerly winds.
For Melbourne, a cloudy day with showers more frequent about the southern and eastern suburbs. A top of just 13 °C.
Heading into Tasmania, showers are possible statewide but will be most frequent or likely across western and southern parts. Possible small hail as well about that west coast. Daytime temperatures or maximum temperatures around 10 °C.
For Hobart, a cloudy day with showers and a maximum of 10 °C.
Heading up to South Australia, morning fog and frost patches about the south-west and then just a risk of very light showers across the south, mainly about the windward coasts and ranges.
The showers in the south-east, they may fall as some small hail, particularly during the morning. For Adelaide, a cloudy day with a possible light shower or two and a top of 14.
Moving onto WA, a dry and settled day with sunny conditions, clear skies, some morning fog and frost patches through southern inland areas and just the risk of a light shower through the Eucla district.
For Perth, a mostly sunny day and a top of 20 °C.
Moving onto the Territory, a dry, clear and mostly sunny day across the state with just some morning frost patches across the south-east and the risk of a light shower about eastern parts of the Top End.
For Darwin, a sunny day and a top of 31 °C.
So if you are wanting a more detailed forecast for your local area, you can head to the bureau's website or app. Otherwise, we'll see you again tomorrow.
Bye for now.
