The southeasterly trade winds are bringing some low to mid level cloud with embedded showers onto the eastern coast of Queensland. A strong high pressure system centred far south of Western Australia is pushing patchy low level cloud over the southern parts of the country. Low to mid level convective cloud with embedded thunderstorms can be seen over Western Australia, associated with a mid level disturbance over the general area. A thick band of low to mid level cloud can be seen over eastern New South Wales, associated with a cold front moving up the eastern seaboard. The rest of the country is mostly cloud free.
