Welcome to your midweek weather update. We're going to take a look at the strong cold front
00:03
to reach the southwest coast later today, but we'll also have a look at the cold and frosty
00:09
mornings that will continue in the east. So starting off with our weather map for the
00:13
rest of tonight, we can see that cold front approaching southwestern Western Australia.
00:18
It's likely to reach Perth at around 8pm local time, bringing showers,
00:23
thunderstorms and the potential for damaging winds and heavy rainfall. Now we have a dedicated
00:28
severe weather video current for this frontal system which will give you all the details of
00:33
the warnings and hazards associated with this front. It is a different story in the east though
00:38
with much more settled conditions through eastern and central Australia under the influence of the
00:44
high pressure system that's sitting over Tasmania. We do have hazardous surf warnings in place though
00:50
extending from the Victorian border all the way up to Garry in Queensland associated with this
00:55
deep low pressure system sitting well offshore. Now the hazardous surf warnings are flagging the
01:00
risk of dangerous marine conditions and large waves and are likely to continue through the
01:05
rest of the week. Going through the rest of Thursday now we can see the cold front sweeping
01:11
across the southern districts of Western Australia. Cold air, showers and hail following in its front.
01:17
We also do have patchy rain a little further north though across parts of the Pilbara and
01:21
Gascoyne pushing towards the interior. Now that's associated with a cloud band coming down from the
01:26
Indian Ocean. We're not likely to see high rainfall totals in these parts but the rainfall is a little
01:32
unseasonal for this time of year. Meanwhile the cold front is pushing into South Australia and it
01:37
will continue on its way into Friday brushing the South Australian coast with a few showers and
01:43
thunderstorms mostly about that coastal fringe. Now this system will actually push across the
01:48
southeast states this weekend but its impacts aren't going to be as strong as previous cold
01:53
fronts and won't push too far inland. Meanwhile mostly settled conditions through the southwest
01:58
and northeast through Queensland but we'll see that patchy rain continuing through Western Australia.
02:04
Taking a look at our temperatures now we can see sub-zero conditions tomorrow morning
02:09
through much of central Australia, southeast Queensland and inland New South Wales, Victoria
02:14
and Tasmania. Frosts are once again possible in these areas. While the temperatures won't be quite
02:20
as low as today or yesterday morning we still might see some very very cool conditions extending
02:26
across those southeastern parts. Cool elsewhere tomorrow morning as well slightly milder through
02:32
inland Western Australia ahead of that cold front. Daytime conditions will feel the brunt of that
02:38
cold front though we can see how the temperatures are dropping across the southwest land division
02:42
behind that system. Still fairly cool elsewhere across the country as well with temperatures in
02:47
general below average. Friday morning we'll see some slightly frosty conditions starting to push
02:53
across southwest Western Australia as well as the cold air behind the front settles in. It will still
02:59
be cold in the east as well but the temperatures aren't quite as low on Friday as they will be
03:04
tomorrow and you can see that those sub-zero areas are contracting towards the east coast.
03:09
Friday's daytime temperatures will stay cool particularly across southwestern parts of the
03:14
country starting to push into those central parts of Western Australia as well under the
03:19
cloud band that's bringing that patchy rain. For all the details for your area check out
03:26
the Bureau's website or the BOM social media. We'll catch you next time.
