IDY28000 Australian Government Bureau of Meteorology Bureau National Operations Centre Satellite Notes for the 0600UTC Chart Issued at 5:58 pm EDT Thursday on 17 October 2019 Afternoon thunderstorms stretch from central Queensland into the Tasman Sea, with some isolated thunderstorms also through parts of the central Northern Territory. A low pressure system can be seen moving offshore of eastern Victoria, with thick cloud and embedded thunderstorms moving away from the continent and towards New Zealand. A cold front and deep low pressure system in the Southern Ocean are edging closer to the south-east. The rest of the continent remains relatively cloud free, apart from some high level cloud through the South West Land Division, and some lower cloud brushing the far south-west coast of Western Australia associated with the cold front.
