A thick band of middle to high level cloud stretches from the QLD/NSW coastal border across the Tasman sea due to an upper level trough. Widespread low level cloud can be seen over southern VIC and TAS due to a moist westerly flow. High level cloud is streaming over WA. The remainder of the country is mainly cloud free.
