IDY28000 Australian Government Bureau of Meteorology Bureau National Operations Centre Satellite Notes for 0600UTC Chart on 22 June 2017 Issued at 5:00 pm EST Thursday on 22 June 2017 A low pressure system is located on the southwest coast of Western Australia, producing cloud and thunderstorms over southwest WA and surrounding ocean waters. Speckled cloud is forming in the cold pool to the north of the low, producing some showers. A middle level cloud band extends from northwest WA to the south coast, associated with a trough. A broad ridge of high pressure is affecting the eastern states and the Northern Territory. Low cloud has formed in moist air trapped under the high pressure system near southern Victoria and Tasmania. There are also some coastal showers along the east coast produced by moist onshore flow. The remainder of the area under the influence of the ridge is free of cloud.
