A second soaking for southern NSW

Kim Westcott, Thursday June 13, 2019 - 16:47 AEST


A slow-moving low pressure trough left some healthy falls across southern New South Wales yesterday.


The heaviest of the falls were in the Snowy Mountains, with Thredbo Top Station picking up 31mm in the 24 hours to 9am Thursday.


Other notable totals were 18mm at Khancoban in the Southwest Slopes, 13mm at Wagga and Temora,  and 12mm at Euabalong. For most of these places, this rain was similar to the amount recorded in the 24 hours to Tuesday.  


The low pressure trough drifted north today; bringing cloud, a few showers and the odd rumble.


Over the next few days most of the rain will be confined to the far northeast of the state, as a high pressure system builds elsewhere. There are some early indications of heavier falls developing early-to-mid next week.

Winter is Coming: Chilly day for Sydney, rain pelts eastern seaboard

17:22 AEST Just as we forecast yesterday, a coastal trough has deepened along the NSW and southeast Qld coasts as a low in the Coral Sea continues to inch closer to Qld.  The trough has brought some interesting weather to NSW in the past 36 hours or so, particularly along the coastal fringe, giving those New South Welshmen a “Stark” Game of Thrones reminder: winter is coming.
