IDY28000 Australian Government Bureau of Meteorology Bureau National Operations Centre Satellite Notes for 0000UTC Chart Issued at 11:22 am EST Friday on 23 April 2021 A trough over the Coral Sea and another in the Gulf of Carpentaria are generating convective cloud and thunderstorms across the eastern tropics, particularly over Cape York Peninsula and nearby areas. High level cloud from these systems is streaming across eastern Qld, north of Brisbane. A trough across the western and southwestern parts of WA is generating a band of mainly mid to high level cloud while a moist onshore flow is generating low level cloud along southern parts of SA, VIC and TAS. The remainder of the country is mainly cloud free apart from areas of convective cloud about the Top End.
