IDY28000 Australian Government Bureau of Meteorology Bureau National Operations Centre Satellite Notes for the 0000UTC Chart Issued at 11:06 am EDT Wednesday on 19 December 2018 Ex-Tropical Cyclone Owen is located over the Coral Sea with a few thunderstorms near it's centre. Over the continent, a low level trough along the NSW north coast combined with onshore winds is developing some low cloud along southern New South Wales coastal areas. Elsewhere a low level trough extends from over the Great Australian Bight through central parts of the continent and is driving an extensive middle level cloud band across southern parts of SA and Victoria. Low cloud is being pushed over southern parts of WA and SA by the southerly wind flow on the western flank of a low embedded within this trough.
