IDY28000 Australian Government Bureau of Meteorology Bureau National Operations Centre Satellite Notes for 0600UTC Chart on 24 August 2017 Issued at 6:47 pm EST Thursday on 24 August 2017 The cold front that affected the southeast of the continent yesterday is now over the Tasman Sea. The cloud associated with it has a large area of embedded thunderstorms. Low cloud in the wake of this front is over parts of the southeast. Cloud near southeast Queensland is due to a surface trough. A middle level cloud band extends across southern Western Australia. This is associated with a jetstream in the upper levels of the atmosphere.
