Australian Synoptic Chart Summary

Monsoonal flow with an embedded low & unstable air is driving showers & storms across the northern tropics, inland & eastern Qld and NE WA, with heavy falls in Qld. Unstable air brings showers to inland & southern WA, while a high generates gusty winds across the south & east.

ISSUED THURSDAY 11:39PM UTC

Monsoonal flow with an embedded low & unstable air will continue to drive rain & storms across the northern tropics, extending into Qld. Onshore winds will bring showers to NE NSW. Hot N’ly winds affect inland SE WA, while high pressure keeps much of the south dry.

ISSUED THURSDAY 11:39PM UTC

Monsoon flow over the northern tropics, along with a low near the NT–Qld border, will continue to bring rain & storms. High pressure ridges will keep mainly dry elsewhere, including Qld's south, but with a few showers along the NSW coast. Hot air will push into the south.

ISSUED THURSDAY 11:42PM UTC

Monsoon flow over the northern tropics, along with a low near the NT-Qld border, should continue to bring rain & storms. An unstable airmass may trigger showers across southern WA. A low may draw heat into the south and southeast.

ISSUED THURSDAY 11:42PM UTC

Monsoon flow over the northern tropics, along with a low near the NT-Qld border, should continue to bring rain & storms. An unstable airmass may trigger showers across eastern WA. A low may draw heat into the south and southeast before a ridge builds in.

ISSUED THURSDAY 11:42PM UTC

Monsoonal flow over the NT extends into Qld with an embedded low, driving widespread showers & storms across the northern tropics. An unstable air mass causes showers & storms over inland Qld, NSW & Vic. Hot E’ly winds affect WA’s west. A cool SW’ly flow brings showers to Tas.

ISSUED THURSDAY 11:42PM UTC

Monsoonal flow over the NT extends into Qld with an embedded low, driving showers & storms across the north, heaviest in NE Qld. An unstable air mass causes showers & storms over eastern NSW & Vic. Hot E’ly winds affect WA’s west. A cool SE’ly flow brings showers to Tas & Vic.
