Oz: Colder southerly, then an east coast storm

A colder southerly is coming for Australia's south-east in the days ahead, bringing a 10 degree drop in some locations. This southerly will then spin up an east coast low which will become stormy in coastal areas (eastern Vic, and south-east NSW). Heavy rain and damaging wind gusts are possible there. We touch on a tropical storm passing by Norfolk Island at the moment. Elsewhere the weather around Australia is remarkably dry and settled (outside of Ex-Tropical Cyclone Narelle in WA). We have your Australia-wide forecast out to Monday of next week, with main focus on the south-east corner of the nation.
