IDY28000 Australian Government Bureau of Meteorology Bureau National Operations Centre Satellite Notes for the 0600UTC Chart Issued at 5:00 pm EST Sunday on 25 August 2019 A broad ridge of high pressure extends low-level cloud over southern parts of the continent. Low-level cloud also extends over eastern and southern parts of Queensland and northeast NSW, contrasted by the clear skies in the relatively drier airmass further west and south. Meanwhile an upper level trough is developing some mid-high level cloud with isolated thunderstorms over inland parts of WA. The rest of the continent remains relatively cloud free thanks again to the ridge along the south coast.
