IDY28000 Australian Government Bureau of Meteorology Bureau National Operations Centre Satellite Notes for 1800UTC Chart Issued at 5:00 am EST Sunday on 18 April 2021 A trough over the Coral sea is generating convective cloud and thunderstorms. A thick band of middle to high level cloud stretches from the QLD/NSW coastal border across the Tasman sea due to an upper level trough. Widespread low level cloud can be seen over southern VIC and TAS due to a moist westerly flow. High level cloud is streaming over WA. The remainder of the country is mainly cloud free.
