Australians warned to brace for stormy end to the week
Parts of Australia have been warned to brace for a stormy end to the week, as a slow moving low pressure system continues to wreak havoc across the country.
The system, that’s produced daily showers and storms across western and central Australia is set to move across and hit Australia’s eastern states on Thursday.
This should result in heavy showers and storms in the western parts of Queensland, New South Wales and Victoria and the eastern parts of South Australia.
Adelaide has already copped a bit of a soak, with residents mopping up after severe weather on Wednesday night saw trees felled and flooding in some parts.

Despite the wet weather warnings, temperatures in the eastern state’s major cities are expected to remain above 20 degrees Celsius for the remainder of the week.
Western Australia residents should also expect to see showers and storms over the weekend, with Tasmanians expecting rain on Friday to clear on Saturday and Sunday.
