Unstable atmospheric conditions are likely to bring rain and storms, possibly heavy, to southeastern New South Wales. Moist easterly winds are expected to result in showers over the eastern and northern parts of Queensland. Coastal areas of Victoria can anticipate showers due to onshore winds circulating around a high-pressure system. In Western Australia's southern regions, a few light showers are forecasted as moist winds associated with a low-pressure system between highs prevail.
