00:00Hello and welcome to this Western Australian Janesweather update for Friday.

00:04Clear skies, we have got a lot of that.

00:06There is activity up to the north, that's not going to come down to us,

00:10it's going to move further eastwards.

00:11In the south-western corner, we're just copying the very top

00:15of some cold fronts that are crossing the Bight,

00:17so it doesn't really add up to very much at all,

00:19there's hardly even any cloud with it apart from that south-west corner.

00:22So here we have Friday, just adding up to 0 to 1 millimetres.

00:25I want to point this out for you here,

00:27so the red lines here and then the purple.

00:30That is heat that is now trapped over the interior

00:32and the northern parts of the country.

00:34When that can surge down to us here on north-easterly winds,

00:38then we dramatically heat up.

00:40But let's watch it day by day to see what it's likely to do for us here.

00:44As soon as high pressure moves out to the east,

00:46that will allow that to come down,

00:47but here we have a big, broad ridge of high pressure

00:49blocking us from those cold fronts to the south

00:52and also blocking that heat from the north.

00:54We're just in no-man's land in the middle.

00:56So there's Friday.

00:57Have a look at Saturday.

00:58Again, just these very southern coastlines.

01:01All of this activity is going to move further eastwards.

01:03Watch our pattern in through here.

01:05Very zonal, so very just like this, east to west.

01:09As soon as you get a horseshoe with that one,

01:11you know that it's starting to come down.

01:13So here's our high pressure as we move through Saturday.

01:15Into Sunday, here is our high pressure.

01:17There is one that is out through here.

01:19Okay, so that would normally indicate, yes,

01:21we start to get our northeasterly winds,

01:24but there is a big but with this one.

01:26There is also a trough that runs through

01:28because there's another high that is out in through here.

01:30As soon as the trough comes in, you don't get the heat.

01:33You're on the cool side of that trough.

01:35So this here starts to come down on Monday.

01:38There we go, starting to get our horseshoe shape.

01:40But watch that.

01:41Here's our trough, so we're not seeing the heat over the southwest corner.

01:44We're hardly seeing any wet weather either

01:45because the cold fronts are moving down to the south.

01:48So here's our little bit of a horseshoe dip down.

01:51Let's watch where that's going to go.

01:52To the east, big horseshoe dip coming down in through here.

01:56Trough is running in through here.

01:58Cool side of that is over to the west.

02:00Showers and storms out ahead of it in that heat.

02:02So here we move through Wednesday.

02:04Nice big band of rain that is moving across the east in through here.

02:07Hot, then rain, showers and thunderstorms,

02:10then a cool change on the back end of that next high pressure system coming in.

02:14So we're not seeing that heat.

02:15It moves through there on Thursday.

02:17Next high pressure system.

02:19Is it going to next Friday?

02:20Here's the next high out here over the bite.

02:22OK, now we're starting to see our horseshoe coming down in through here.

02:25But is there a trough that is running in there

02:28that is going to spoil the hot weather party for that yet?

02:31It's likely to not get a lot from that one

02:33as the next change comes through ready for next Saturday.

02:36So no major heat concerns for us yet,

02:39even though we've got that big ball of heat

02:40that will be moving further to our east,

02:42but not for the southwest at this stage.

02:44What does that add up to?

02:46Lots up in the north, lots moving in through here.

02:49Hardly anything for the southwest corner.

02:51So for Perth, let's have a look at our temperatures.

02:5319, 20, 22, 23.

02:55We hang around that and it might warm up next Friday

02:57before the next cool change moves through.

02:59So there's no heat concerns at all for that southwestern corner

03:03anywhere in the outlook at this stage.

03:05Maybe in the next week, we'll start to see that as it gets active.

03:08So we are seeing that it is moving down,

03:10like Melbourne's going to be in the low 30s

03:12as we move through Thursday.

03:14So that heat is making it down to the south,

03:16just not to us in the southwestern corner here.

03:19And also with that, there is hardly any wet weather,

03:21but you can really tell by the wind direction.

03:24That is all southerly until you get our northeasterly

03:26when our temperatures jump up.
