A high-pressure system over Australia is driving a run of unseasonably warm autumn weather in the nation’s southern states this week.

Northerly winds are circulating in an anticlockwise direction around the high-pressure system, pulling warm air from the country’s interior towards the south, as reported by WeatherZone.

This weather pattern, which is ushering in warm and dry conditions across Victoria, South Australia, and even Tasmania, is expected to persist for several days as the high-pressure system migrates eastward.
