IDY28000 Australian Government Bureau of Meteorology Bureau National Operations Centre Satellite Notes for the 1800UTC Chart Issued at 6:26 am EDT Wednesday on 20 March 2019 Tropical Cyclone Trevor (Category 2) is located between Lockhart River and Arakun and continues to track slowly to the west southwest. Heavy rain and thunderstorm areas are in the vicinity of Trevor and extend across the northern Gulf of Carpentaria and down to the north tropical coast. Tropical Cyclone Veronica (Category 1) is located approximately 435km northwest of Broome. The monsoon trough is aligned through this system remaining offshore from the northwest of WA. The monsoon trough also extends across far north Queensland to Tropical Cyclone Trevor and over the northern Coral Sea. Further south, a slow moving upper low and associated surface trough is generating showers and thunderstorms off the northern NSW coast. A high pressure ridge south of the continent continues to direct an easterly flow across the remainder of southeastern Australia with patchy low cloud. To the west, showers and isolated thunderstorms are active near a trough from the south coast near Albany extending through the Gascoyne to the inland Pilbara. Patchy middle and high level cloud continues to drift over the WA interior.
