Australia Weather

A strong high pressure system in the Tasman sea is driving scattered low cloud onto the Queensland coast, and strengthening the onshore trade wind flow over these coastal regions. Mid to upper level cloud is passing over southwest Western Australia due to an upper feature. Isolated thunderstorms are occurring ahead of this feature. Another upper feature is driving a blanket of high level cloud over eastern Western Australia. A large band of mid to upper level cloud is streaming over Tasmania, ahead of a large cold pool of air moving up just south of Tasmania. The rest of the country is mostly cloud free.
