00:00Hello from the Bureau, let's take a look at what the weather is doing across the country tomorrow

00:04which will be Friday the 18th of July

00:07and there is an area of interest across the east coast where we haven't seen much rain this week

00:11but during Friday there will be a low pressure area that develops somewhere near the Queensland-New South Wales border

00:17now at this current stage it looks like this low will quite quickly move away from the country

00:22and won't have a huge impact on the weather

00:24but will certainly bring some showers and stronger winds to parts of either state

00:29elsewhere we've got high pressure really continuing to dominate most other areas

00:33which will mean sunny and settled conditions

00:36let's fly around the states and we will finally see a bit of rain across Queensland on Friday

00:41through the southeast from Rockhampton down to the Darling Downs and across to the southeast coast

00:45including Brisbane, showers expected to develop through the morning

00:48and really stick around into the afternoon, probably clearing up at the end of the day

00:53rainfall totals relatively low but could see up to about 15 or 20mm in a few areas

00:58and maybe a touch more for one or two locations

01:01elsewhere across the state from Mackay right up to the top and out to the west

01:06we've got fine sunny conditions

01:08there will also be a bit of wet weather for parts of eastern and northern New South Wales

01:13and the time of day does vary

01:14so early in the morning we'll see showers across maybe the northern rivers, northern tablelands

01:19and northwest slopes and plains

01:21it's not until the afternoon when we expect to see showers push up this east coast

01:25in effect the likes of the Illawarra coast, the Sydney coast

01:28up into the Hunter and the mid north coast as well

01:31most of that wet weather should clear up either during the evening or overnight

01:34paving the way for a settled and dry Saturday

01:37western parts of the state will have fine weather with none of that rain

01:42down through Victoria a little bit warmer here than what we've had through the week so far

01:46at least during the day, the night and the morning will still be pretty chilly

01:49lots of 1 degree temperatures on our map for early Friday morning so it will be fresh as

01:54you head out the door 5 degrees in Melbourne but those afternoon highs just a couple of

01:58degrees warmer than they have been and should be bathed in sunshine as well

02:03very little chance of rain across the state except for a light shower down around the south coast

02:10we've got some northerly winds building across Tasmania getting a little gusty after lunch

02:14that will keep temperatures again a couple of degrees higher than what we've seen through the

02:18week so far Hobart will have a fairly nice day with a high of 14 showers throughout the day up in

02:24the mountain ranges and then in the evening a couple of showers could develop along this north coast

02:29from Burnie across to Launceston across South Australia dry weather will set in on a Friday

02:36very little rainfall maybe a shower for Kangaroo Island and the Limestone Coast outside of that it will be

02:42dry a little bit of cloud here and there but lots of sunshine in between and it's another day another

02:47cold front for Western Australia about the third or fourth one this week flying across the southern

02:52portion of the state during Friday that'll bring a few showers from Perth or somewhere just north of

02:57Perth right around to about Esperance but no significant rainfall totals are forecast there will be some

03:03really big waves across those southern and western coastlines the showery weather doesn't really push

03:08into the wheat belt so it remains fairly dry inland and of course dry across the north which is reflected

03:14right through Australia's north this week it's beautiful clear sunny dry season weather once again

03:20across the territory across the Kimberley as well temperatures in the high 20s or low 30s for our

03:25northern tropics we've got about 20 degree maximums inland but of course those cool desert nights down to

03:31around about one degree in some areas find the early outlook for your weekend weather forecast on the
