IDY28000 Australian Government Bureau of Meteorology Bureau National Operations Centre Satellite Notes for the 1800UTC Chart Issued at 5:05 am EST Monday on 19 August 2019 A cold front is crossing the eastern New South Wales with the main cloud band over western Tasman Sea and eastern Tasmania. To the west of the cold front a large mass of cold air has produced a large and vigorous field of speckled convective cloud with isolated thunderstorms around the the Victorian, South Australian and western Tasmanian coastlines. This speckled cloud extends throughout the Bight and south to the Southern Ocean. The rest of the country is mostly clear, with only patchy cloud near a surface trough that extends across Northern Territory and Queensland.
