IDY28000 Australian Government Bureau of Meteorology Bureau National Operations Centre Satellite Notes for the 1200UTC Chart Issued at 11:16 pm EST Monday on 22 April 2019 An upper level low and associated trough is responsible for the band of cloud extending through the eastern interior. Isolated embedded thunderstorms are visible with this feature. Onshore winds continue to bring showers along the Queensland and NSW coast, while a cold front is tracking to the southeast of Tasmania. A high in the Bight is maintaining clear conditions through central Australia and most of Western Australia, although high cloud is present about the Pilbara. Further north, a thin line of high level cloud, associated with a jet stream, is positioned over the central NT merging with the cloud mass over the eastern interior. A weaking front is approaching the southwest coast of Western Australia.
