Weather Situation – Northern Western Australia
A high pressure ridge to the south will direct a moderate southeasterly flow across the north, then as a high pressure system develops in the Bight from Thursday, a strengthening east southeasterly flow will affect northern districts over the next few days.

Weather Situation – Southern and Central Western Australia
A ridge of high pressure near the south coast will develop a high centred 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. The ridge will redevelop to the south of the State on Saturday and Sunday.
