The chance of a touch of fog yet again in the morning,&#8221; Sharpe added.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In Adelaide, warmer than usual and partly cloudy with a top of 24C.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;For the west coast, finally cooler weather and even the chance of a couple of showers moving through for the Perth region, but I wouldn\u2019t expect it to be overly wet.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Elsewhere, a few showers for tropical Queensland and a chance for the central coastlines as we continue to see wet weather along the eastern seaboard, with the focus being the NSW north coast.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Forecasts across the nation<\/p>\n<p>Sydney is in for a partly cloudy Thursday, with a very high chance of showers and a high of 22C.<\/p>\n<p>Melbourne, though, should see a mostly sunny day despite the chance of morning fog. A top of 22C is expected in Victoria&#8217;s capital.<\/p>\n<p>Brisbane residents are facing a very high chance of showers alongside a high of 24C.<\/p>\n<p>Perth is also in for a grey Thursday, with showers expected, most likely in the morning and afternoon, and a top of only 20C.<\/p>\n<p>Adelaide should see slightly better conditions, with a partly cloudy day and possible showers, most likely in the morning and afternoon, expected. A high of 24C is forecast for South Australia&#8217;s capital.<\/p>\n<p>Canberra locals are facing a similar forecast, with a slight chance of a shower, most likely in the late morning and afternoon, and a top of 19C expected.<\/p>\n<p>Hobart, though, will see a sunny day on Thursday, with a high of 19C.<\/p>\n<p>Darwin will also see bright and clear skies, with a top of 33C forecast.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Wet conditions will persist along the eastern seaboard of Australia on Thursday, while the south stays warm and&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":668921,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[64,63,163268,44],"class_list":["post-668920","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-australia","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-australia-weather","tag-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/668920","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=668920"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/668920\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/668921"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=668920"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=668920"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=668920"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
