Weather Situation – Northern Western Australia
A weak trough will lie over the west Kimberley and Pilbara coasts for the next few days. A strengthening high pressure ridge to the south will direct a moderate southeasterly flow across the north over the next few days pushing the trough offshore during the morning periods. A high pressure system will then develop in the Bight from Thursday, resulting in a strengthening of the east southeasterly flow over the north.

Weather Situation – Southern and Central Western Australia
A ridge of high pressure will lie near the south coast for the next few days. A high pressure system will develop in the Bight from Thursday. A cold front will reach the southwest corner of the State early on Friday morning, but will fail to penetrate too far inland due to the strength of the high in the Bight.
