IDY28000 Australian Government Bureau of Meteorology Bureau National Operations Centre Satellite Notes for 1200UTC Chart Issued at 11:34 pm EST Friday on 19 August 2022 A cold front with an extensive cloud band continues its progress across eastern Australia, with convective cloud in the cloud band over the Tasman Sea. Another cold front is in the eastern Bight and is moving east, with an associated band of cloud, which extends to Vic and Tas. A thin band of upper cloud fed by tropical moisture from the Indian Ocean lies over the Gascoyne Region of WA. The remainder of the country remains relatively clear under the influence of a high pressure ridge, extending from the west, onto the central part of the continent, except low clouds for the southern coastal and adjacent regions of the continent.
