Weather Situation

A cold front will continue to move along the New South Wales coast today, with a fresh to strong and gusty southerly wind change extending along the coast in its wake. Winds will ease and shift south to southeasterly later in the week as another high pressure ridge extends over the region. A high pressure system will then move into the Tasman Sea over the weekend, directing east to northeasterly winds along the coast.
