IDY28000 Australian Government Bureau of Meteorology Bureau National Operations Centre Satellite Notes for 1800UTC Chart on 19 September 2017 Issued at 5:23 am EST Wednesday on 20 September 2017 Speckled cold air cloud can be seen over the Tasman Sea. A thin cloud band associated with a cold front is approaching southwest South Australia. A larger mass of cloud associated with this front is visible in the Great Australian Bight. A cloud band producing rain over coastal Queensland has been formed by moist tropical air being moved southwards by the jet stream. A high pressure system over south eastern Australia is keeping the remaining areas of Australia cloud free.
