You can expect some nice sunny weather in eastern Queensland thanks to a stubborn ridge that refuses to budge. Meanwhile, western Queensland is getting a bit of a soaking thanks to a trough that's sucking up moisture like a thirsty camel. Be prepared for some wet and wild weather as that trough slowly makes its way east, eventually fizzling out over the weekend off the southeast coast. And just when you thought it was safe to go outside, a weak trough might decide to stick around in northern Queensland next week, while a weak ridge lounges lazily over southern Queensland.
