IDY28000 Australian Government Bureau of Meteorology Bureau National Operations Centre Satellite Notes for the 0000UTC Chart Issued at 11:00 am EST Sunday on 22 September 2019 A strong cold front is moving through the Tasman Sea and northern NSW as a cloud band with embedded thunderstorms. A pool of cold air behind a second cold front is approaching SA as a broad area of cellular cloud over Bight waters and adjacent coastal parts. Further west, onshore flow is generating low cloud over southern WA. An upper level trough and jet stream is responsible for remaining middle and high level cloud over northern parts of the continent. Low cloud also affects parts of Queensland coast from a moist onshore airstream.
