Australia Weather

A low pressure system and associated trough located on the west coast of Western Australia is driving low to mid level cloud across most southern parts of the state, with embedded thunderstorm activity near the trough. An upper level cloud band ahead of this feature covers the southeastern districts. A heat trough further north is driving some further convective cloud, with upper level cloud extending into the interior of the country. Much of the the southeast of the country is covered in low level cloud associated with a high pressure system in the Bight, becoming more 'speckled' through Tasmania in the wake of a cold front. A deck of low level cloud is seen central Queensland coast, associated with the remnants of a trough located off the coast. Meanwhile, thin wispy upper level cloud is seen further north, moving through the Queensland southeast coast. The north of the country is relatively cloud free.
