IDY28000 Australian Government Bureau of Meteorology Bureau National Operations Centre Satellite Notes for the 0600UTC Chart Issued at 5:54 pm EDT Tuesday on 19 February 2019 Severe Tropical Cyclone "Oma" is situated over the Coral Sea, well away from the Queensland coast. A large area of convection surrounds the system. A middle level cloud band with an embedded line of active thunderstorms extends from the southeast coast of NSW towards the south island of New Zealand. Cold air in the wake of the front appears as speckled low level cloud crossing Tasmania, southern parts of Victoria and southeastern South Australia. Storms through the north of WA, the interior of the NT and down through central QLD lay along a trough of low pressure. The remainder of Australia is relatively clear.
