IDY28000 Australian Government Bureau of Meteorology Bureau National Operations Centre Satellite Notes for 1800UTC Chart Issued at 9:07 am EDT Tuesday on 18 January 2022 Widespread convective cloud covers much of central Australia and Queensland, associated with the remnants of Ex Tropical Cyclone Tiffany and associated troughs. A broad band of middle and upper level jet stream cloud extends from the inland desert region of Western Australia across northern South Australia then over the southern New South Wales border region with Victoria. Low cloud covers the southern coastal fringe of the continent and all but the northeast corner of Tasmania in the prevailing onshore wind flow. Scattered tropical thunderstorms persist over the north and west of the Top End, Kimberley and Barkly regions, and Torres Strait Islands. The rest of the country is mostly clear.
