Alpine Areas | NSW | VIC | TAS
Issued: Sat Sep 23
A high pressure system over the northern Tasman Sea, in combination with a complex low pressure system south of the Bight, is drawing hot air into New South Wales from central Australia. Later today a cold front will move into southern and western districts, but will weaken over the northeast on Sunday, where conditions will remain very warm. Another front is expected to affect the region during Monday, but it's impact will be short-lived as a new high should be over the Tasman Sea by Wednesday, bringing a return to warm northerly winds.
