IDY28000 Australian Government Bureau of Meteorology Bureau National Operations Centre Satellite Notes for 0000UTC Chart on 26 September 2017 Issued at 11:05 am EST Tuesday on 26 September 2017 A trough stretches from the Top End to southeast Queensland with patchy cloud near the trough. A low south of New Zealand extends a cold front to near Lord Howe Island. This front is signified by a mid-level cloud band with embedded thunderstorms. Southwesterly airstream behind this front is bringing areas of low cloud with scattered showers to southern Victoria, and southwestern Tasmania. In the west, a band of mid-level cloud extends across the Bight to eastern South Australia. This is associated with a broad low complex with its main centre near Albany. There are isolated thunderstorms off the WA south coast near the low, as well as off the west coast between Perth and Shark Bay due to a trough extending northwest from the low. Southern Victoria and western Tasmania are experiencing low cloud due to an onshore westerly airstream.
