Damaging winds are on the way for
south-eastern parts of the country. So, let's take a look,
and I'll also be taking you through the weather for the week ahead
for the rest of Australia. So, here we have the satellite image
and we can see the moisture or cloud
extending from the Indian Ocean into a cold front in the Great Australian
Bight that's pushing it eastwards. Now, it's this cold front
that will be bringing the wet and windy weather to the south-east
and even some snow about alpine areas. So, here it is
that cold front pushing into the south-east later this evening and then crossing
the region during Tuesday. Now, this front's going to bring
showers, gusty winds, even the chance of thunderstorms
and small hail about southern parts and also for Tasmania, and rain
about eastern ranges through here. And just noticing this follow up
front quickly behind it. That's really going to drop the temperatures
and let that rain through the eastern ranges shift to snow about alpine areas
overnight Tuesday into Wednesday morning. Now, I just want to show you the winds at 1.5 km
above the ground. Now, these winds aren’t influenced
by the friction on the ground and the thing to note
is that there are some areas of pink winds in excess of 120 kilometres per hour that move through with this front
as it moves through and then on Wednesday, pushing up the east
coast of New South Wales before clearing out into the Tasman Sea. Now, winds at this
level can be dragged down to the surface by the rain and then they’re experienced as
these wind gusts and because of that,
we do have Severe Weather Warnings for damaging wind gusts
about elevated parts of Victoria and New South Wales, and also an area
about the south-west coast of Victoria and for many parts
throughout Tasmania as well. Now, these are for wind gusts
in excess of 90 kilometres per hour, but even is as strong as
110 kilometres per hour about alpine areas. Now, as we move through and continue,
I want you to note that on Tuesday that the moisture
really starts to build, shifting the focus to the west,
build over the Gascoyne and western parts of WA. And as we move through for Wednesday,
we see that front clearing out, but a rain band starting to develop out in the west,
extending down into the Eucla. Now, on Thursday it shifts southwards as it's being drawn into a developing low
pressure system in the Bight. And from Thursday onwards
there's even a chance for showers about south-eastern parts of South
Australia continuing into Friday but that's highly dependent on
the position of that low pressure system. Now, temperature wise,
we've got temperatures between 4 to 8 degrees above average
through the interior. Looking at temperatures
in the mid to high 20s through there and as expected, the temperatures
across south-eastern parts of the country really dropping as that colder
air mass moves in on Wednesday. Those colder temperatures continuing
into Thursday with the low teens, but extending up into southern parts
of Queensland with high teens to low 20s through there. And again on Friday, little change in the east and those warmer
temperatures through the interior. Now, if you're wanting to know more
about what's what's going on in the weather
with your neck of the woods, then you can visit the Bureau website app
or social media. Otherwise, we'll see you again next time. Bye for now.
