IDY28000 Australian Government Bureau of Meteorology Bureau National Operations Centre Satellite Notes for 1800UTC Chart Issued at 7:43 am EDT Sunday on 05 February 2023 A band of mid to high level cloud and thunderstorms is associated with a trough extending from a shallow low in southern Cape York Peninsula to a cold front and low pressure system in the eastern Tasman Sea. Southwesterly winds between this low pressure system and a high in the Bight are driving onshore flow and low level cloud across Tasmania and the southern coastlines of South Australia and Victoria. A trough extends from the Top End through the Kimberley region of Western Australia to a low pressure system near Perth. Areas of middle level cloud and thunderstorms can be seen near and to the west of this trough. The inland parts of the country is mostly clear due to a ridge of high pressure.
