Weather Situation

A ridge of high pressure is expected to persist along the coast, directing east to northeasterly flow for much of the week. A weak trough is forecast to bring a brief southerly change on Wednesday to the South Coast. Winds will then turn fresh northeasterly later in the week as a trough extends to central parts of the coast, possibly deepening to a low pressure system off the coast on Saturday before moving offshore. Fresh southerly winds are forecast to develop along the coast later in the weekend in the wake of the low.
