IDY28000 Australian Government Bureau of Meteorology Bureau National Operations Centre Satellite Notes for 1800UTC Chart on 29 May 2017 Issued at 5:49 am EST Tuesday on 30 May 2017 A strong cold front and associated middle level cloud band is moving across southern South Australia, Victoria and Tasmania. An upper level trough is responsible for the middle level cloud streaming from the Northern Territory Top End, across much of eastern Queensland to out over the Tasman Sea. Some high cloud can be seen over southwest WA streaming ahead of a series of cold fronts which are moving across the southern Indian Ocean. The rest of the continent is mostly clear due a ridge of high pressure.
