IDY28000 Australian Government Bureau of Meteorology Bureau National Operations Centre Satellite Notes for the 1800UTC Chart Issued at 5:00 am EST Wednesday on 08 April 2020 Low cloud is building along the southeast QLD and NSW coast and ranges as the high south of the Bight ridges over the Tasman Sea driving a moist onshore airstream. An extensive area of mid to high level cloud is present over the interior of the continent and the southeast. This due to an upper level disturbance as well as the subtropical jet stream transporting high cloud away from thunderstorm activity over northern WA. Middle to high level level cloud crossing southeast Australia is due to an upper level disturbance.
