WEATHER: ECL TO MOVE AWAY QUICKLY

A fast moving low has been making it’s way across NSW today.

An early morning line of storms cleared and this afternoon the core of the system fired up patchy rain periods across the region with more storms across the NW Plains.

Tonight the centre of the low will move offshore. Gale force winds and some heavy down pours will hit the Central Coast, Newcastle to Port Macquarie. Large, dangerous seas and swell will develop.

Condition will ease quickly on Saturday as the low gets driven away from the coast. Some isolated, coastal, shower activity will linger over the weekend, more so on Sunday.
