IDY28000 Australian Government Bureau of Meteorology Bureau National Operations Centre Satellite Notes for 0000UTC Chart on 20 August 2017 Issued at 11:00 am EST Sunday on 20 August 2017 Low cloud along the east coast of Victoria, New South Wales and southern Queensland is due to cold airmass associated with a complex low pressure system near New Zealand. Thunderstorms can be seen over the northern Tasman Sea. Cloud with embedded thunderstorms over the Eyre Peninsula (SA) is due to a cold front and low pressure system. Low cloud is affecting southwest Western Australia, behind the cold front. Middle level cloud streaming across South Australia is associated with an upper level trough. High level jetstream cloud stretches from the northwest into northern SA and southwest Queensland. The remainder of the country is mostly clear under the influence of a high pressure ridge.
