Weather Situation

A cold front is moving through the southern waters bringing unsettled weather and a southerly change. This weather will extend to the remainder of the coast today as the cold front is forecast to form a low pressure system offshore, affecting the coast until mid week. After this, the system is expected to weaken to a trough and be driven away by a high pressure system moving east along the Southern Ocean.
