A low pressure trough extending through inland parts of Western Australia, running through South Australia and across New South Wales is generating a patchy line of clouds with embedded thunderstorms. Convective cloud and thunderstorm activity can be seen around the north of the country, largely confined to the Cape York Peninsula, the Gulf of Carpentaria, Top End and the northern Kimberley. A cold front has passed through western and Central Victoria and Tasmania bringing low to mid level speckled cloud. A high pressure ridge is directing low level cloud into southern Western Australia. Onshore flow is generating low to mid level cloud over coastal districts in Queensland due to a high in the Tasman Sea. The rest of the country is mostly cloudy free.
