IDY28000 Australian Government Bureau of Meteorology Bureau National Operations Centre Satellite Notes for 1800UTC Chart Issued at 5:28 am EST Saturday on 01 October 2022 Middle to upper level cloud and areas of vigorous thunderstorms are evident over eastern parts of Western Australia, the Northern Territory, western Queensland and northwestern South Australia. This is due to a slow moving low pressure trough at the surface and an upper level disturbance. Another low pressure trough over the Tasman Sea in combination with a strong high near Tasmania are maintaining a moist onshore flow over the eastern seaboard with areas of low cloud. A weak cold front with an associated band of cloud is approaching the south west of Western Australia.
