Australia Weather

A cold front is offshore to the southwest of Western Australia. Ahead of this system, a broad deck of low cloud is being drawn over western most portions of the Southwest Land Division. An upper trough ahead of the cold front is causing convection cloud and embedded thunderstorms over southern Western Australia. Patchy mid level convective cloud is present over much of the country's tropical north. A trough over central Queensland is driving convective cloud and scattered thunderstorm activity in the region. Low to mid level cloud can be seen over Tasmania and southwestern Victoria. A slow moving, elongated high pressure system centred over Victoria and Tasmania is responsible for cloud free conditions through central parts of the country.
