A powerful high pressure system located near Tasmania is creating a strengthening ridge of high pressure that is affecting the entire region. This high is expected to shift towards the Tasman Sea today, maintaining the ridge for the next few days. However, the high is forecasted to weaken slightly at the beginning of next week. There is a possibility of a new high pressure system moving into the Great Australian Bight by next Wednesday, which could bring changes to the weather patterns in the region. Overall, the region can expect stable and settled weather conditions in the coming days, with the potential for some fluctuations as the high pressure systems shift and evolve.
