Australia Weather

A deep upper low is driving a surface low pressure system and a trough is in northwestern Western Australia, A near stationary line of thunderstorms is to the south of the surface trough along the main axis of the upper trough. To the east, a cloud band with embedded thunderstorms generated from the upper system spans northern and central Western Australia, and into western parts of South Australia and southern parts of the Northern Territory. A series of upper troughs over the southeast of the country are bringing convective cloud and thunderstorm activity to eastern New South Wales. A heat trough stretches from central Northern Territory, through Queensland, into southern New South Wales connecting to a heat low. Low level cloud is present over southern South Australia and Victoria, pushed onshore by a high pressure system south of the Bight. The rest of the country is mostly cloud free.
