IDY28000 Australian Government Bureau of Meteorology Bureau National Operations Centre Satellite Notes for the 0600UTC Chart Issued at 6:26 pm EDT Monday on 27 January 2020 Widespread showers and thunderstorms with locally heavy falls extend over central and northern QLD and also over the eastern Barkly and eastern Carpentaria districts of the NT. A slow moving tropical low lies over the Gulf Country district with an associated trough aligned across the North Tropical QLD coast. A warm and humid west to northwesterly flow persists to the north of this trough. Areas of thunderstorms have developed about the southern Queensland border, northeastern SA and northern NSW. Isolated thunderstorms are also developing over northern WA. A high pressure system in the Bight is maintaining mostly clear skies over much of southern Australia. A westerly airstream and middle level trough is resulting in extensive high and middle level cloud moving over southern and eastern Victoria and Bass Strait, with some middle level cloud over western Tasmania.
