Weather Situation

A deep trough over southern WA is moving east, ahead of a cold front moving through the South West Land Division tonight. Associated cloud band brings widespread rainfall to much of the South West Land Division, Gascoyne, southern Interior, Eucla and Goldfields. The trough and cold front will move north and east on Friday, contracting the cloud band to central and eastern parts of the state, where it is expected to linger until next week. A weak high pressure system will quickly move across southern WA later Friday into Saturday, followed by another cold front on Sunday.
