Wild wet weather moving over Australia's south

Much of Australia's south will be hit with rain and blustery winds in the coming days as a large low-pressure system and multiple cold fronts make their way across the area.

The low, which has been causing weather chaos for parts of Western Australia's south, will move across the Great Australian Bight and pass through Tasmania, before moving north towards South Australia, Victoria and parts of western NSW.

This will result in moderate to heavy showers for most of Australia's south and send a surge of strong winds across the same regions.

A high in the north of Australia is also likely to cause some moderate showers in Queensland while parts of the Northern Territory will continue to see a dry spell extend into the weekend with some bushfire warnings in place for the far Top End.

Dozens of communities in WA are still cleaning up after a solid week of wild weather which saw floods and hazardous surf warnings across many coastal towns.

Perth exceeded its monthly average rainfall yesterday with 148.6mm falling as compared to 142.3mm.
