A northwest cloud band with widespread low level cloud and scattered mid level cloud is moving eastward through central Australia. This feature is associated with an upper level trough that is also bringing mid to high level cloud to southeastern parts of the country. A moist airmass trapped underneath a ridge over the eastern Top End and northern Queensland is generating areas of low level cloud. Scattered low level cloud is being pushed onshore along the east coast by a high in the Tasman Sea and is also present across the southern half of Western Australia due to a low in the Great Bight. The rest of the country is mostly cloud free.
