IDY28000 Australian Government Bureau of Meteorology Bureau National Operations Centre Satellite Notes for 1800UTC Chart on 21 October 2017 Issued at 6:02 am EDT Sunday on 22 October 2017 A cloud band over the Coral Sea is bringing patchy rain and isolated storms to the east tropical coast of Queensland. Isolated thunderstorms can be also seen near the Top End. Interaction of an upper level trough and a broad surface trough has produced an extensive and developing cloud band with embedded thunderstorms over Western Australia. Moist onshore flow driven by a high pressure system south of the Bight is bringing areas of low cloud to southeast Australia, while keeping the rest of the country mostly clear.
