The cloud band also stretches down through South Australia and eastwards into Queensland. Another low pressure trough over the Tasman Sea in combination with a high pressure system east of Tasmania are maintaining a moist onshore flow over the eastern seaboard, generating areas of low cloud. Moist onshore flow is also generating areas of low level cloud over southern coastal regions of Western Australia. The rest of the continent is mostly cloud free.
