Weather Situation

A stalled trough about the Hunter is driving northerly winds to the north and east to southeasterly winds to the south of it. Winds are forecast to turn north to northwesterly ahead of a series of trough approaching the coast during Saturday and Sunday. On Monday a cold front moving up the coast will bring a southerly change, likely to reach the northern border during Monday afternoon. Behind this a high pressure ridge is forecast to lie over the coast mid week next week bringing clear conditions and light winds.
