As predicted,moist air from what was Tropical Cyclone Marcus led to plenty of low clouds on Monday,with rain,drizzle and showers at times especially in the afternoon as a low pressure trough moved through.

Also as predicted a middle level cloud band moved across the region at night

Cooler air mass then lies over the region with sunny conditions by today afternoon with a ridge of high pressure building to the south.

Slightly warming conditions towards the end of the working week as a west coast trough forms near the west coast with some warm air advection.

The high pressure system likely lies to the south during the weekend leading to a somewhat east-southeasterly pressure gradient.
