This week\u2019s weather is a mixed bag for Australia, with thunderstorms brewing in the east and west, and a sharp chill sweeping across the south-east. For those in southern states, prepare for a sudden drop in temperature, while the northern parts will continue to see stormy conditions. Here\u2019s a breakdown of what\u2019s ahead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Looking at the weather over the weekend, storms and showers have already begun to make their mark on the eastern coast. Queensland, in particular, is seeing wet conditions along the coast, especially in the Capricornia region. This could mean some disruption, particularly if you\u2019re heading out to the beaches or planning any outdoor events. Fortunately, by Sunday afternoon, the showers should ease, but the storms will still be hanging around, especially to the north.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Meanwhile, over in the west, a high-pressure system is bringing clear skies to most of Western Australia, offering a reprieve from the typical rainy conditions, reports The BOM<\/a>. But don\u2019t let the clear skies fool you; this calm weather is just the calm before a storm. As we head into the middle of the week, the situation is set to shift, with the arrival of a cold front bringing thunderstorms and gusty winds to the northern parts of WA. If you\u2019re in or around the Goldfields or Wheatbelt regions, you might want to batten down the hatches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you live in South Australia, Victoria, or Tasmania, it\u2019s time to dig out your winter jackets because this week is bringing a noticeable chill. On Monday, a cold front is expected to sweep across the south-east, bringing both showers and a sharp drop in temperatures. If you\u2019ve been enjoying the warmer spring days, you might be in for a surprise. By Tuesday, temperatures could be as much as 10\u00b0C below average, especially in areas like the Riverina in NSW.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For those in Tasmania, don\u2019t expect to be basking in sunshine anytime soon. The cold front will linger, and you might see some frost on the ground if you\u2019re up early. Just a heads-up, the mornings will feel pretty brisk.<\/p>\n\n\n\nA Cold Snap for the South-East<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
