Rain Hits Central, Eastern Australia

In the south of the country tomorrow, areas of high pressure are strengthening, starting to bring more settled conditions to some of our southern areas. A west coast trough over Western Australia is starting to reinforce warm weather through those south-western parts of the country.

In Queensland tomorrow, showers and thunderstorms continue in the far north of the state and also in the far west, close to the Northern Territory border. In fact, we could see the continued risk of locally heavy falls and flash flooding through parts of the south-west there. We'll see some patchier coastal showers continuing in the east, but most other parts of the state are in for dry and generally mostly sunny conditions. It is worth noting however that significant flood warnings remain in place for much of the state of Queensland. For Brisbane tomorrow, we are looking at a shower or two on the forecast and a top of 29 °C.

In New South Wales tomorrow, we are likely to see showery weather developing across much of the state, a little bit drier through the far north-east and northern inland, but wet weather emerging elsewhere. We do have the risk of thunderstorms for some areas, which could bring some heavier falls, particularly through those north-western parts of the state, but also around parts of the east coast, particularly around the Illawarra, Shoalhaven, Sydney Metro, Central Coast and Lower Hunter. We could see storms bring the risk of locally heavy falls for our Wednesday. For Sydney tomorrow, it will be a showery day with a top of 26 °C. Down in Canberra, a shower or two and a top of around 24 °C.

In Victoria tomorrow, we are looking at some morning fog through those southern parts of the state, then a generally dry, partly cloudy to mostly sunny day. Further north we will see more cloud, with showers continuing on our north of the ranges. I should say. The risk of thunderstorms through the north-east. For Melbourne though, we're heading for a top of 23 °C tomorrow, a partly cloudy day on the way.

In Tasmania tomorrow, the chance of morning fog through many of our inland areas, then it will be a dry day, generally quite mild, with plenty of sunshine across the state. For Hobart, we're looking at a mostly sunny day with a top of 23 °C.

Moving to South Australia, we are looking at fairly cloudy skies continuing across the state. Areas of rain and possible storms continue across those northern and eastern areas, with the risk of heavy falls persisting through the far north-east. We will generally see drying conditions through southern and central as well as western parts of the state, but it will remain fairly cloudy. For Adelaide, it'll be a mostly cloudy day with a top of 26 °C on the way.

In Western Australia, the chance of morning fog through many of our south-east coastal districts, then a warm, dry and mostly sunny day. Our west coast trough is starting to reinforce that warm weather through our western and south-western districts in particular, although it will be cooler than average further inland across the interior and across the north of the state. We will see the continued chance of showers and storms through the Kimberley and northern interior as well. For Perth though, it will be a dry day, a hot, sunny top of 36 °C.

In the Northern Territory tomorrow, rain areas, showers and storms through most areas, particularly focused through those northern and central parts. A slight chance of some heavy falls through the south-east early in the day, easing back to patchier showers through those southern districts later. We are likely to see a showery day, a possible thunderstorm on the way and a top of 31 °C in Darwin. It's also worth noting that we do have Flood Watches remaining in place for much of the Territory, with Flood Warnings for many of those eastern and south-eastern areas.
