IDY28000 Australian Government Bureau of Meteorology Bureau National Operations Centre Satellite Notes for 0600UTC Chart Issued at 6:20 pm EDT Wednesday on 05 October 2022 An upper level disturbance ahead of a surface trough is generating mid to upper level cloud and thunderstorms from the Top End and Barkly district in the Northern Territory extending to eastern parts of Qld, much of NSW, Victoria, Tasmania and southeast SA. A low pressure system in the Bight and a high to the south of Tasmania, is also feeding moist northeasterly winds over these regions, helping in the generating of a large and active cloud band. A surface trough through southwest WA and a moist southerly airstream behind the trough, is generating cloud over much of the southwestern part of WA. Moist onshore flow is generating areas of low level cloud over the coastal region of southern SA and over the Cape York Peninsula in Qld otherwise the rest of the country is mostly cloud free.
