IDY28000 Australian Government Bureau of Meteorology Bureau National Operations Centre Satellite Notes for 1800UTC Chart Issued at 6:21 am EDT Tuesday on 02 March 2021 The monsoon trough over the Indian Ocean links to severe Tropical Cyclone Marian, which is just off the chart, west of the area associated with mid to upper level cloud. A separate branch of the monsoon trough stretches over the Coral Sea. It extends eastward from a developing Tropical Low off the Cairns coast. This low is generating deep convection with embedded thunderstorms. Cloud is also "spilling" southeastwards from this low over southeast QLD. An inland trough over central WA is generating cloud across much of WA into western SA. Meanwhile a cold front has passed over TAS and its associated with cold pool covers TAS, the Bass Strait and southern VIC with a line of convective clouds.
