Weather influences

• A high pressure system shifted eastwards into New South Wales on the 1st and maintained a ridge over eastern Queensland.
• On the 2nd a high pressure system shifted further east over the Tasman Sea with the ridge along the east Queensland coast easing.
• A surface trough shifted eastwards across the state extending unstable conditions with its passage on the 3rd.
• On the 4th a trough cleared off the east Queensland coast early in the day allowing a high pressure system over southern Western Australia to extend a ridge over the state and a cool, dry air mass across most of the state.
• A high pressure system over central Australia on the 5th, moving into east Queensland on the 6th extended a strengthening ridge and a cool, dry air mass across the state.
• On the 7th the high pressure system moved into the Tasman Sea that extended a weakening ridge over eastern Queensland and a weak pressure gradient in the region.
• The high pressure system shifted further east over the Tasman Sea on the 8th that extended a weakening ridge along the east Queensland coast. A strong cold front swept across central and southern inland of the state quickly that brought unstable conditions over inland parts of the region.
• A cold front shifted eastwards off the east Queensland coast in the morning of the 9th that extended to a complex low pressure system in south-eastern Australia. This extended a dry westerly airflow over southern Queensland behind the trough. A high pressure system in Great Australian Bight extended a ridge in the wake of the front. This brought unstable conditions with the front.
• On the 10th a deep low pressure system shifting east over New South Wales extended cool and dry winds in southern Queensland. A high pressure system in the Tasman Sea otherwise extended a weak ridge across the state.
• On the 11th a high pressure system over central Australia extended a weak ridge over the state, while a deep low pressure system shifting eastwards over New South Wales and into the Tasman Sea extended a cool and dry air mass over southern Queensland.
• The high pressure system shifted eastwards into the Tasman Sea on the 12th that extended a weak ridge over the state. A low pressure system shifting eastwards over the Tasman Sea maintained dry westerly flow over southern Queensland.
• On the 13th a weak ridge extended over the state with stable conditions over most of the state from a high pressure system over eastern Australia.
• On the 14th the weak pressure gradient persisted as moisture starts to return over eastern Queensland.
• A weak ridge extended over eastern Queensland on the 15th with some moist onshore flow.
• On the 16th a weak ridge extended over eastern Queensland. A cold front shifted eastwards over inland and central parts of the state, but with stable conditions in the region.
• The 17th saw a trough shift eastwards and off the east Queensland coast early in the day and brought some instability. A large high pressure system over the Great Australian Bight extended a strong ridge and cool and dry air mass across southern and central Queensland in the wake of the trough.
• On the 18th the high pressure system maintained the cool and dry air mass across most of the state. A deep low pressure system in the Tasman Sea directed cool south-westerly flow over southern Queensland.
• On the 19th the high pressure system remained in the Great Australian Bight and continued to direct a cool and dry air mass over most of the state. A deep low pressure system shifted north-eastwards over the Tasman Sea and combined with the ridge to extend moderate to fresh and gusty west to south-west flow in the region.
• The high pressure system shifted eastwards over south-eastern Australia and directed a cool and dry air mass across the state on the 20th and 21st. A low pressure system shifting eastwards over the Tasman Sea extended a southerly swell along the southern Queensland coast.
• On the 22nd a high pressure system shifted eastwards over the Tasman Sea extending a ridge over most of the state and directing a stable air mass across most of the state.
• A high pressure system in the Tasman Sea extended a ridge over the state on the 23rd with some moist onshore flow.
• On the 24th a weakening ridge extended over the east of the state as a high pressure system shifts east over the Tasman Sea. A trough and cold front moved eastwards over southern Queensland with an associated cloud band extending over the west and south of the state. This extended instability into the region during the evening.
• The 25th saw a cold front over central and southeast parts of the state to shift eastwards extending a cloud band from the northwest to the southeast of the state. This brought moisture and instability in the region.
• A trough and upper level trough that brought instability shifted eastwards off the east Queensland coast later in the day on the 26th while the upper trough lingers further inland. A high pressure system extended a ridge in the wake of the trough and a cool and dry air mass.
• On the 27th a high pressure system over southeast Australia extended a firm ridge and an stable air mass over much the state. An upper level trough shifted eastwards over the south of the state.
• A high pressure system moving east over south-eastern Australia extended a firm ridge over the state with some instability along the exposed east coast on the 28th.
• The high pressure system moved into the Tasman Sea on the 29th extending moist onshore flow along the east Queensland coast before the ridge started to weaken on the 30th while the onshore flow persists.
