Strong front showing up for late in the week, but like every system this month it looks to be moisture starved.
Uppers get very chilly Friday night into Saturday morning, with 850Ts dipping to around -4 to perhaps -5C. Freezing levels dip to about 800m, so snow flurries where there are showers should drop to around 500 to 600m. Should see some nasty frosts locally where winds drop out.
Rain totals look ok on the southwest coast and northeast. Elsewhere will be pretty hit miss, with little to no rain north of the divide
Progs showing 2-15mm across the metro area so won’t prevent us having a quite awful monthly total in the end (the city is just 3mm above its record low set back in 2008)
