Plenty of thunderstorms occurred last night and this morning in an unstable atmosphere ahead of an upper/middle level trough/disturbance.A cold front also moved through.

Post cold frontal showers affect the region overnight and into tomorrow until afternoon in the moist west-southwesterly air stream.

Early on Tuesday land breeze convergence results in a line of convective clouds offshore,the anvil from those clouds could spread inland therefore slight chance of light showers and/or drizzle over coastal areas in the early hours and morning.

Sunny by Wednesday with a high pressure ridge to the south,a west coast trough deepens near the west coast leading to some warm air advection,west coast trough moves inland from Thursday afternoon.

Some high clouds on Friday ahead of an upper/middle level trough/disturbance.

Warm air advection with a west coast trough deepening near the west coast again next weekend.
