Weather Situation

A broad trough lies over the Kimberley and North Interior with a ridge strengthening over the Gascoyne bringing southerly winds to the Pilbara waters, and extending to western Kimberley waters. As the ridge further expands into central Australia next week, the trough will be pushed out of WA and an easterly flow will return to the region.
