00:00Hello, Ilana here from the Bureau with your National Weather Forecast for tomorrow,
00:03Thursday the 18th of June. Now, tomorrow we continue to watch the progression of this slow
00:09moving rainband and cold front moving in from the central states and out towards the east,
00:14with that rain even extending through to northern Australia. Now, tomorrow is going to be a
00:18particularly wet day for Victoria and Tasmania. Ahead of this frontal system, we continue to
00:24see warm northerly winds with some record warm mornings in store for the southeast. Behind that
00:31system, we have a secondary trough moving through, bringing some shower activity along the south coast
00:36and out in the west, this high pressure ridge will bring cool and clear conditions. Let's now take
00:42a look state by state and we'll start in Queensland with some patches of morning fog through inland
00:47parts of the east. We do start to see wet weather develop with this rainband moving in from the
00:53southwest. That will bring some rain and storms to an area southwest of about Mount Isa in the north
00:58and through to around Kanamala in the south. Along the east coast, we continue to see some isolated
01:04shower activity, tending a little bit more scattered further north. For Brisbane tomorrow, 23 degrees and
01:10a partly cloudy day. Into New South Wales, where it will be a warm start to the day, we could
01:16see some
01:17record warm June mornings through inland parts. We then start to see our rain increasing from the
01:23far west and across the southern plains. That will gradually make its way further east throughout
01:28the day. But east of the main ranges, it will remain dry and will also remain rather warm or mild.
01:35Sydney will see 23 degrees tomorrow, making it the 12th day in a row above 20 degrees. And for Canberra,
01:417 tomorrow morning, warming up to 17 with some possible later showers. Into Victoria with some widespread
01:48rainfall as this cold front moves through, starting in the west and moving towards the east. However,
01:54that rainfall through Gippsland will be more isolated. We're also looking at an increase in
01:58winds tomorrow with the passage of this system, with damaging wind gusts up to 100 kilometres per hour,
02:03developing just about the alpine ranges in the evening. For Melbourne, it will be another warm start,
02:0915 degrees and then 19 tomorrow afternoon. We're likely to see some of those gusty conditions and could see a
02:15few
02:16showers. Into Tasmania, which will see rainfall increase as that cold front approaches throughout
02:23the day. In this humid air mass, also we have warmer than average temperatures in northerly flow.
02:28So that rain will increase particularly about the north and the west, with showers tenting more
02:33isolated through the southern and eastern parts. For Hobart, 18 degrees tomorrow with some possible showers.
02:41For South Australia, this main rain mound will be moving out towards the eastern
02:45states throughout the morning period. However, we do have this follow-up low and trough,
02:50bringing some shower activity from the southwest coast and then towards the Air Peninsula and even
02:57towards Adelaide later in the day. We could also see some thunderstorms mainly about the coastal fringe.
03:02For Adelaide, it will be a cooler day tomorrow and we could see a few showers. We'll see a top
03:07of 15.
03:09For Western Australia, this southerly flow will continue to bring some isolated shower or drizzle
03:14activity, tending a little bit more inland as well through the southeast. However, for other parts,
03:19it will be generally dry and settled. We'll see another cool morning with areas of fog and frost inland.
03:26For Perth tomorrow, 5 degrees in the morning, warming up to just 17.
03:31Up in the Northern Territory, we're starting to tap into this tropical moisture.
03:35As this rain band moves through, it could bring some rainfall totals up to 20mm through central and
03:41southern parts. Further north though, we could still see some showers but generally a bit lighter.
03:46For Darwin tomorrow, 31 degrees and we could see just a light shower.
03:51Further south though, in the lee of this trough, we're starting to see some much cooler temperatures
03:56moving in. Alice Springs will just see 20 degrees tomorrow and some shower activity.
04:02That's all for our national weather forecast. If you'd like some more information, please visit us at
