Australian Weather

Showers will spread up the NSW coast on Friday and persist during the weekend with heavy falls possible in the Hunter. The showers will first develop along the south coast early Friday behind a southeasterly change. The change will push north on Friday, causing the showers to spread up the coast. The heaviest falls are likely along the Hunter coastline early Saturday but most of the NSW coast should receive at least 10mm by Monday. Showers will begin to clear from the South Coast during the weekend but are likely to continue along the northern half of the coast until at least Tuesday. An upper trough lingering over eastern NSW will aid instability and allow some showers to reach the eastern ranges.
