IDY28000 Australian Government Bureau of Meteorology Bureau National Operations Centre Satellite Notes for 1800UTC Chart on 16 October 2017 Issued at 6:27 am EDT Tuesday on 17 October 2017 Extensive cloud with thunderstorm activity affects eastern and northern Queensland, northern New South Wales and the Coral Sea. This is due to a surface low pressure trough off the Queensland coast combining with an upper disturbance to the west. A cloud band and isolated thunderstorms over southwest WA wraps around a low pressure system south of WA. Middle level cloud ahead of this system can be seen sweeping over the southeastern parts of WA and the Great Australian Bight. Areas of low cloud over the northern Kimberley region and the northern parts of Northern Territory otherwise mostly clear conditions elsewhere.
