IDY28000 Australian Government Bureau of Meteorology Bureau National Operations Centre Satellite Notes for the 1800UTC Chart Issued at 5:09 am EST Wednesday on 17 July 2019 A cold front south of the Bight is generating a mid level cloud band west of Tasmania. Low cloud over the southern parts of the continent is due to onshore southerly flow directed by a high pressure system near WA/SA border. Southeast wind flow is directing low level cloud near Cape York Peninsula and the northeastern parts of the Top End. The remainder of the continent is largely cloud free under the influence of a high pressure ridge.
