IDY28000 Australian Government Bureau of Meteorology Bureau National Operations Centre Satellite Notes for the 0000UTC Chart Issued at 11:00 am EST Thursday on 27 June 2019 A strong cold front with an extensive cloud band is moving through the southern districts of Western Australia and extending through into the Southern Ocean. Cold, unstable air behind the front is resulting in speckled convective cloud and thunderstorms about the far southwest of the state and out over the ocean. Further east, high cloud can be seen pushing over Tasmania ahead of the frontal system. Moist onshore winds due to a strong high pressure system in the Tasman Sea are combining with an upper level trough and generating areas of low level cloud along southeast QLD. Further patchy low cloud is also evident along the NSW coast associated with the onshore flow. The remainder of the country remains dry and mostly clear.
