Cold front moving across Australia's south-east forecast to bring strong winds, hail, rain and snow
A cold front moving across south-eastern states is dumping snow, with strong, damaging winds bringing down trees and power lines.
www.abc.net.auHere’s a quick update on southeastern Australia’s freezing weather situation.
- Latest reports indicate a strong cold front moving through the southeast, bringing sub-zero nights and frost in several areas of New South Wales, Victoria, and parts of Tasmania. Temperatures are expected to rebound somewhat later in the week, but further cold snaps aren’t ruled out.[1][3]
- Snow has been possible at relatively low elevations in Victoria, with frosty mornings widespread across the region. Winds have been gusty in coastal and alpine areas, which can make it feel even colder.[3][1]
- Weather agencies continue to warn travelers to expect hazardous conditions in exposed and high-elevation locations, and to monitor local forecasts for any changes in snow level or wind advisories.[1][3]
