Finally a sigficant cold front for SE Australia after a few weeks of action focusing on Southwest West Australia.
The change should see widespread snowfalls to the Alpine areas – the ski resorts have certainly been waiting for this!.
GFS tips a low off the NSW south coast which may shoot a cold pool up the ranges. We could see some decent snowfalls across the Central and possibly Northern Tablelands.
Besides the snow and rain chances, gales and severe weather warnings are featuring in SA, NSW and VIC already.

Temperature got down to 5 this morning at McLeans Ridges, NSW which is about as low as it gets here. It reflects the cold airmass which has passed across Southeast Australia with widespread severe frosts in some parts this morning.
The best snowfalls Tuesday night and into Wednesday were largely confined to areas south of the Blue Mountains from what I can tell with some good falls along the southern ranges and alpine areas. A few flurries were reported from the Armidale area too.

Hi Jimmy – hope all goes well with these final days before the birth. Things will certainly change again for you 
The focus of interesting weather finally shifted to the Southeast of the country with a series of cold fronts and lows passing through. Many locations have received between 50 and 100mm and some over 100mm. Adelaide, NW TAS, SW VIC and the higher ground of eastern VIC have done well. Snowfalls have fallen to low levels particularly in Tasmania where forecasts were indicating snow down to 400 metres elevation. Quite a bit of damage has also occurred due to strong winds.
Of course these sorts of patterns bring lovely sunny and warm days here and the rest of the week looks fine.
