IDY28000 Australian Government Bureau of Meteorology Bureau National Operations Centre Satellite Notes for 1800UTC Chart on 25 June 2017 Issued at 5:57 am EST Monday on 26 June 2017 An extensive band of middle and high level cloud, resulted from the interaction between a surface trough and an upper level trough, extends from the interior WA across central Australia and into southwest QLD. Patchy high level cloud is streaming along the jet stream from the Indian Ocean to northern WA. A cold front is moving across the western Tasman Sea, speckled cloud can be seen in the unstable cold air behind the front. Low level cloud found near tropical Queensland, Tasmania and along the south coast of the continent are due to onshore flows driven by a firm ridge of high pressure. Skies are mostly clear over the remainder of country under the high pressure ridge.
