Australia Weather

A trough through the Timor sea is enhancing convective activity in the region and bringing thick cloud with embedded thunderstorms to the tropical north coast. Broad areas of low to high level cloud lie north of a trough extending from Queensland through to the Northern Territory. A cold front pushing through southwest Western Australia is generating a low to mid level cloud band with scattered thunderstorms ahead of it associated with a prefrontal trough. A second cold front moving up the NSW coast is bringing scattered low to mid level cloud to the area. A slow moving high pressure system in the Bight is pushing a broad deck of low level cloud inshore along the coast of Victoria and western Tasmania. The rest of the country remains mostly cloud free.
