IDY28000 Australian Government Bureau of Meteorology Bureau National Operations Centre Satellite Notes for the 0000UTC Chart Issued at 11:00 am EST Wednesday on 19 June 2019 A cold front and associated cloud band with embedded thunderstorms has moved into the Tasman Sea and stretches southward to a low east of Tasmania. A pool of cold air is moving over southeastern Australia in the southerly flow behind the front. Areas of low cloud over parts of SA and southeastern WA are trapped under a temperature inversion caused by a high pressure ridge. A region of active thunderstorms are visible to the northeast of WA associated with a nearby trough, however the remainder of the continent is mostly clear. A strong cold front can be seen well west of Australia approaching the Bight.
