So we’ll start off by taking a look at tomorrow’s weather map, where the focus of the weather tomorrow will be through the east, as tropical moisture combines with these troughs to bring showers and storms to southern parts of Queensland and northern parts of New South Wales.
While further south, this cold front will bring a gusty south-westerly change and some showers and even some small hail and snow to Tasmania. Then out in the west, just some developing showers and storms through the south-west. So let’s go around the country now, taking a closer look.
We’ll start off with Queensland. We’re expecting hit and miss showers and storms to develop south of about Mackay, but really start to get going during the afternoon and the evening. Now there is the potential for severe thunderstorms about the north-east parts of the Darling Downs, pushing into the south-east coast and up into the Wide Bay-Burnett. Now, with these severe thunderstorms, there may be large hail, damaging winds or even some heavy rainfall that could lead to flash flooding. Further north however, also just the chance of a few showers about the north-east tropical coast and the coast of the Carpentaria. For Brisbane a partly cloudy day with showers and the risk of a thunderstorm. Potentially severe. A top of 29 °C.
Now those showers and storms are expected to push over the border into New South Wales across the north, and there’s still also the potential for severe thunderstorms about northern parts of the mid-north coast, bringing large hail or damaging winds. While further south, it’s this cold front that will bring a gusty south-westerly change that will race up the coast and bring a few showers during the afternoon and the evening. Out in the far west though generally dry and clear, conditions. For Sydney are mostly sunny day with a possible shower or two a top of 27 °C, while for Canberra, mostly sunny and 21 °C.
Moving on to Victoria. It’s going to be this cold front that will dominate, pushing into the south-west during the morning, reaching the central district during the afternoon and then the east during the evening with a really gusty south-westerly change behind that front and bringing showers to generally near and south of the ranges. Now, we’re not expecting any significant rainfall with the showers tomorrow, and they’ll be generally less than five millimetres. For Melbourne a partly cloudy day with showers developing, most likely during the afternoon with that frontal system a top of 18 °C.
Moving on to Tasmania, we’ve got widespread showers in the west that will gradually extend across the state. There’s also a risk of small hail and snow down to 800 m. For Hobart a cloudy day with showers and a top of 15 °C.
Now moving on to South Australia. We’ve got this cold front with the south-westerly change that will bring some showers pushing into the southern agricultural district as, but as we head further inland, dry and sunny conditions. For Adelaide a partly cloudy day with a possible shower or two and a top of 20 °C.
Moving on to Western Australia. It will be dry, generally dry at first, but then during the afternoon in the evening we’re expecting some showers and storms to start to pop up through the Gascoyne and extending down towards the South West Land Division. It will remain dry for Perth, however, there will be some hazy conditions and some smoke lingering with mostly sunny conditions.
Moving on to the northern tropics, we’re expecting showers to develop throughout the Kimberley and the western Top End, but elsewhere across the region. Generally dry and mostly sunny conditions. For Darwin a mostly sunny day with a possible shower or two and a top of 33 °C.
So if you’re after a more detailed forecast for your local area, then you can head to the bureau’s website, app or social media. Otherwise, we’ll see you again tomorrow. Bye for now.
