A complex low pressure system off the western coast of Tasmania extends a trough over central Victoria into southern New South Wales. This low pressure system's cold pool and trough is generating patchy areas of low to mid level cloud over Victoria and New South Wales. The same system extends another trough over Tasmania and brings thick low through high level cloud to the state. Scattered low level cloud is visible about the southern and southwestern coast of Western Australia as a cold, maritime air mass flows over. Extensive high pressure ridging over the remainder of the country is leading to mostly cloud free conditions elsewhere.
