00:00Hello, Miriam at the Bureau with your national weather forecast for tomorrow, Wednesday the 11th
00:04of September. Now we have a few features of note on our weather map for tomorrow. Over in the west
00:10we have a west coast trough developing. It is interacting with this high pressure system
00:15sitting over the Great Australian Bight to produce these areas of patchy showers and
00:19possible thunderstorms through parts of inland Western Australia and western parts of South
00:24Australia too. Now this is fairly high up in the atmosphere so we're not going to see too much
00:28rainfall reaching the ground. A different story over in the southeast however with a cold front
00:33moving through tomorrow likely to bring showers and possible thunderstorms to much of southeastern
00:38Australia. We're also going to see showers and possible storms through northeast New South Wales
00:44and southeast Queensland pushing back across the southern interior of Queensland as well. Those
00:49storms may tend gusty at times through the day particularly during the afternoon and evening.
00:55Now let's take a closer look at all of that now going state by state starting with Queensland.
01:00So patchy morning fog along the east coast is on the forecast for tomorrow with isolated coastal
01:05showers following although rainfall totals will be fairly low away from the northern tropics.
01:10We've got those showers and possible storms through the southeast and southern inland parts of the
01:14state which may produce some gusty winds at times too. These may impact Brisbane through the day
01:19tomorrow heading for a top of 25 degrees there. Down in New South Wales those showers and storms
01:25are still on the forecast for the far northeast of the state but remaining areas are looking at
01:30mostly settled and sunny day for the most part. Sydney could see a little bit of smoke haze in
01:35the greater Sydney area but otherwise sunny conditions are top of 25. Late in the day
01:40though we will see that cold front moving across to the south and that's likely to bring a few
01:45showers and possible storms to those southern districts later on Wednesday. Canberra may catch
01:51a late shower or two a top of 21 degrees there. Down in Victoria we're expecting morning fogs for
01:57some parts of the state and then a mostly clear morning before this cold front rolls through
02:02during the day. That's likely to bring showers and possible storms mostly to the central and eastern
02:07districts but they may impact Melbourne throughout the day tomorrow we are heading for a top of 20
02:12degrees there. Down in Tasmania a similar story with some drier weather particularly through the
02:18east in the morning. That'll change as this front comes through during the day with a burst of
02:23showers moving across the state starting to ease back once again in the evening. Rainfall totals
02:28will be moderate through the west but lower through those eastern parts. Hobart looking at a
02:33shower or two top of 14 degrees for our Wednesday. Up in South Australia we are looking at a few
02:38showers and isolated storms in the northwest of the state easing back later in the day with mostly
02:43clear conditions through those remaining central districts. A few patchy showers moving across the
02:48southern agricultural areas later in the day though as that front moves through. Adelaide is looking
02:53at a shower or two top of 18 degrees. Over in the west we've got the west coast trough bringing warm
03:00and dry conditions to our western districts. That includes the Perth area where we are expecting a
03:05sunny top of 25 degrees for our Wednesday. Showers and possible thunderstorms across the southern
03:10interior as well as parts of the Pilbara and Gascoyne through the day tomorrow although with
03:15very low rainfall totals expected. Finally for the northern territory we are seeing a little bit of
03:20that shower and storm activity sneaking into the Lasseter district down in the southwest but most
03:25other parts of the state are looking at a sunny and dry day. In fact those dry conditions may
03:30elevate fire dangers around the Darwin and Adelaide River fire weather districts so keep
03:34an eye out for any warnings that may be issued there. Darwin itself heading for a sunny top of 35
03:39degrees tomorrow. Now you can find the detailed forecast for your area via the Bureau's website
