For the first part of the week our weather was dominated by a weak high pressure system moving slowly across southern Queensland and into the Coral Sea. This brought to the Ranges warm northerly winds and above average temperatures. Then on Thursday night there was a dramatic fall in overnight temperatures as a northwest cloudband moved in with high cloud and a frontal system producing no rain. However, on Saturday and Sunday winds backed to the southeast and brought to the Ranges some useful isolated maritime showers to break the 14 day spell of dry weather.
Outlook The frontal system will move off the coast during Monday allowing ridging from a high pressure system to become our dominant weather pattern on Tuesday. Conditions should remain fine well into the week. As the week progresses winds will increase with a possibility of some local shower activity later in the week.
