Australia Weather

An extensive upper level cloudband streams from northwestern Western Australia, across the southern half of South Australia, and into western Victoria and over Tasmania. This cloudband streams ahead of a cold front that is moving along the southwestern coast of South Australia. In the wake of this system, southwestern Western Australia is covered in cool "speckled" mid level cloud. A high pressure system in the Tasman Sea extends a ridge over northern and eastern parts of the country, driving some patchy cloud along the eastern seaboard. The rest of the country is mostly cloud free.
