Conveyor Belt Of Cold Fronts Closing I ( source: Weatherzone )  Here they come. One cold front after another for at least the next week for southeast Australia. This is good news for snow lovers, but not such wonderful news for those of us who don't enjoy wet, cold, windy weather.  Adelaide, Melbourne, Hobart and Canberra (and everywhere in between) can expect a persistent spell of blustery, cool to cold, showery weather – with the first burst on Thursday into Friday morning, a second colder burst on Saturday, and the coldest outbreak of the period looking increasingly likely to arrive early next week. Sydney will duck the worst of it, with top temps staying in the high teens and even peaking in the low twenties on a couple of days in the warmer northwesterly wind flow between fronts, while Brisbane will completely avoid the wintry weather, with a prolonged spell of delightful fine days and top temps in the low-to-mid twenties. But the real story is down south. This is a classic Australian late winter pattern for the southeast and Adelaide will feel the first rumbles of it on Thursday – perhaps literally, as a thunderstorm in the morning or afternoon is possible. Melbourne could also see storms later on Thursday. As for the mountains, snow is coming as mentioned. How much?  Well, it's probable that totals in the vicinity of 50 cm could accumulate at higher elevations by this time next week, and perhaps a little more. Be sure to keep checking the Weatherzone snow page for the latest. A little rain could fall on all but the highest peaks on Thursday in the warmish air ahead of the first front, but from then on, it all looks like the good stuff. At this stage, snow also looks likely to penetrate a fair way north next Monday or Tuesday, with the potential for good snowfalls on the Central Tablelands and Blue Mountains of the type which we haven't seen this winter since the first few days of June. We'll keep you posted. |

Pleasant day here with a high/low of 82/55 F (28/13 C). There were some localized showers but it looks like they missed the airport station (KFWN). The showers I did see barely wet the ground.

I feel like this is a nightmare for a lot of people on here. An island station in SE Sweden.  |

Kotka Haapasaari, one of the meme islands, recorded a low of 22.2C last night. This is the all-time highest low recorded during the latter half of August in Finland.
Helsinki Kaisaniemi recorded a low of 21.7C, which is the highest low in the 2nd half of August since the 1850s!

Minimums above 20c were recorded at three coastal stations, the night slightly warmer in the northern part than in the southern part. Temperatures in my area this afternoon. Better map, unofficial stations are also shown.  |

30-degree temperature difference in NSW!  It's not often that any Australian state or territory has two locations with temperatures that are separated by 30°C or more at any given point in time. But that has been the situation in New South Wales for several hours on Friday afternoon, with weather stations in the state's northeast and southeast separated by 30 degrees or more. For example, at 1 pm: *Casino, in the Northern Rivers, was sitting on 28.5°C *Thredbo Top Station, down in the Snowy Mountains, was –3.0°C That's a gap of 31.5°C. That gap of 30 degrees or more has persisted for at least three hours. A cold front passed through southern parts of NSW overnight, bringing snow to the mountains, showers and a few storms here and there, while also dropping maximum temps several degrees on Friday compared to Thursday. For example, Canberra had a maximum of 15.9°C yesterday but has not yet nudged 13°C today, and probably won't. That cool air has not yet quite penetrated to the far north-east corner of the state, but it's not too far off, and will arrive later today or overnight, with weekend top temps at most spots in the northeast (below the tablelands) expected to reach the low twenties on Saturday and only the high teens on Sunday. www.weatherzone.com.au/news/wow-30degree-temperature-difference-in-nsw/758259 |

SNOWFANS - YOUR TIME IS COMING UP EARLY IN THE NEW WEEK! LARGE WATCH AREA NOW IN PLACE. ( source: Weather Matters with Karl Lijnders )  Weather Matters with Karl Lijnders More details can be found at www.weathermatters.org. But prepare for the cooler weather to spread far and wide this week and even bringing a drier and cooler shift over the tropics as well (but elevated fire dangers too).  · |

Low Level Snow Imminent In Southeastern Australia. ( source: Weatherzone )  A strong cold front crossing southeastern Australia during the next two days will bring damaging winds, heavy rain and some of the lowest snow so far this year. The satellite image below shows a cold front passing over SA, VIC and TAS late on Monday morning, with a large cold air mass in its wake.  The front will continue to move towards the northeast over the next 24 to 48 hours, crossing TAS, VIC, SA and southern NSW on Monday and then the rest of NSW, the ACT and southern QLD on Tuesday. The passage of this strong cold front will produce a wintry mix of blustery winds, rain, thunderstorms, hail and snow. The strongest winds are likely to occur ahead of and with the cold front, with damaging gusts likely over mountainous areas in northeast VIC and southern NSW on Monday into early Tuesday morning. Gusty southerly winds will also spread up the coast and ranges in NSW on Tuesday and Wednesday, in the wake of the front. Rain will spread over a broad area of southeastern Australia during the next two-to-three days, with widespread falls of 10 to 30 mm and isolated totals above 50 mm, most likely in western TAS.  Some of this precipitation will be falling as snow thanks to a mass of very cold air in the wake of the front. Snow is expected to reach as low as: Around 300 metres above sea level in Tasmania on Monday night into Tuesday morning Around 500 metres in Victoria on Tuesday morning Around 700 metres in southern NSW and the ACT late on Tuesday 900 to 1000 metres in central and northern NSW late on Tuesday This system could deliver the first snow so far this year in parts of central and northern NSW, and in some lower-lying areas of TAS and VIC. There is even potential for a few snowflakes on higher terrain in SA’s Mount Lofty Ranges on Monday night. Maximum temperatures will be several degrees below average from Tuesday across much of southeastern Australia: Adelaide is forecast to reach 14 and 15ºC on Tuesday and Wednesday, which is around 3 to 4ºC below average. Melbourne’s maximum temperature is predicted to only hit 12ºC on Tuesday, around 4ºC below average. Hobart should only warm to 10 to 11ºC on Tuesday, which is 3 to 4ºC below average. Canberra’s maximum should reach 11ºC on Tuesday. Sydney’s daily maximums will range from 17 to 19ºC between Tuesday and Saturday. Some of this precipitation will be falling as snow thanks to a mass of very cold air in the wake of the front. Snow is expected to reach as low as:  |
