IDY28000 Australian Government Bureau of Meteorology Bureau National Operations Centre Satellite Notes for 1200UTC Chart Issued at 12:25 am EDT Friday on 29 January 2021 The dominant feature in the tropical north of the country is an active monsoon trough, which is causing convective cloud and thunderstorms and has several embedded lows. The low east of the Gulf of Carpentaria is persistent, as is a low in the northern Kimberley region, both with areas of deep convective cloud and lightning. A surface trough extends from interior NT through Qld, central NSW producing thunderstorms. A cold front and low is developing just over the SA coast in the Bight which can be seen as mid-high level cloud. A large mid to high level cloud band in the Tasman Sea is still connected to the coast of NSW. The remainder of the continent is mostly cloud free.
