An intense low & front are causing very strong winds, showers, small hail & highland snow in NSW & Vic & rain in Tas. Showers are now departing southeast Qld as the front clears. A front brings showers and storms to southwest WA. High pressure keeps elsewhere dry and settled.

Tuesday 09:30 z

Another strong front will bring strong winds, showers, small hail & a colder change to WA's south and later SA. Strong winds will temporarily ease showers & snow will mostly clear in Tas, Vic, NSW & southern Qld. It's looking dry & unseasonably warm for QLD & the NT.

Wednesday 09:30 z

A wintry cold front will bring another burst of strong winds, showers, small hail & highland snow to SA, Tas, Vic & NSW. The front & associated trough will also bring blustery winds, a colder change & patchy rain to Qld's south. A high will clear much of the NT & WA.

Thursday 09:30 z

A high will cause brisk winds to ease & most showers & alpine snowfalls to clear in the southeast. The high will bring a cold morning to WA then a cold night to the interior & southeast. Persistent westerly winds will maintain a few showers in western Tas & coastal Vic & SA.

Friday 09:30 z

A broad high will bring a cold morning, frosty in the south, then a dry day to much of the country. The high should clear most showers from the country's far southeast & also send dry, gusty winds across the country's interior & north. Warmer winds should develop in WA's west.

Saturday 09:30 z

A lingering high will bring a cold morning to the south, and a dry day to much of the country. Showers are likely to scatter along the east coast with the aid of blustery onshore winds. Patchy rain should scatter across the western, central & southern interior in a weak trough.
