A trough ahead of a cold front in the southern ocean is pushing through southwestern South Australia, and is responsible for a mid level cloud band with scattered thunderstorms. A slow moving, elongated high pressure system over Victoria and Tasmania is pushing a broad deck of low level cloud over the southeastern coastline of both states. This high pressure system is also responsible for cloud free conditions through inland parts of the eastern half of the country. Convective cloud with embedded thunderstorms can be seen through parts of the Northern Territory and northern Queensland. The rest of the country remains mostly cloud free.
