IDY28000 Australian Government Bureau of Meteorology Bureau National Operations Centre Satellite Notes for the 1800UTC Chart Issued at 6:17 am EST Thursday on 20 September 2018 A cold front is producing a middle level cloud band and thunderstorms over Tasman Sea. Cold air behind the front is depicted by the speckled low cloud near the Tasmanian, Victorian and NSW coastline. High cloud and isolated thunderstorms over the northwest of the country are associated with an upper level trough and jetstream. A high pressure system over the southwest of the country is producing some low cloud near the southern WA and SA coast as well.
