National 4 Day Forecast

Windy.com ACCESS 4 Day 2PM Rain and Synoptic


Wednesday: Showers dancing around from place to place. Up in northern Cape York Peninsula and southeastern Queensland, showers will play hide and seek with you. Elsewhere, the skies will be mostly clear and inviting. Expect breezy winds from the northeast to the southeast, then turning northwest to northeasterly down by Emerald and along the southeast coast. In the southwest, the winds may get a little frisky, giving you a playful nudge from time to time. Keep an eye out as they turn from southeast to southwesterly in the far southwest.


Thursday: A mix of showers for the southern Darling Downs and Granite Belt District—think of it as a sprinkle here and there! Over on the east coast and up in northern Cape York Peninsula, showers might pop up randomly, turning a bit more frequent above Ingham. Down south, the interior is basking in mostly sunny skies, while the rest of the regions are enjoying pure sunshine! Don't be surprised if you encounter some morning fog in the eastern districts below Townsville. And, if you're in the Granite Belt area, get ready for minimum temperatures that are higher than usual. As for maximum temperatures, they're not just above average but soaring inland! It's a toasty day ahead, so dress accordingly and savor the sunny spells!"


Friday: You can expect some isolated to scattered showers along the east coast, northern Cape York Peninsula, and southeastern districts. It'll be sunny everywhere else! Keep an eye out for possible morning fog in eastern districts south of Ingham. You might feel the minimum temperatures being well above average in the southwest. And don't be surprised if the maximum temperatures are above average, especially further inland where it might even tend well above average! Just a heads up to plan your day accordingly.


Saturday: Expect some scattered showers in the east and over northern Cape York Peninsula on Saturday. It'll be mostly sunny in the southern interior and even sunnier elsewhere. Minimum temperatures will be well above average in the southwest, while maximum temperatures will be above average and even well above average inland. Enjoy the day and dress accordingly!

 

State

Windy.com ACCESS (Values are rainfall over 3 hours)


So, we've got a cheeky high hanging out in the Tasman Sea, spreading its good vibes across most of the state. This high is planning to make its way east over the next day or two. Meanwhile, there's a laid-back trough chilling out over southwestern Queensland. This chill trough is going to mellow out as it heads east over the next few days, eventually saying goodbye off the southeast coast by Friday morning.


But wait, there's more! Come Friday, a fresh high is rolling in to take over the Tasman Sea party, extending its good energy over the state. This high will head east over the weekend, keeping the good times rolling with its ridge. And looking ahead, there's a possibility of a new trough sneaking into western Queensland starting next Tuesday.
