Clear Conditions Dominate Across Highly Populated Parts of Australia! (credit: Higgins Storm Chasing)

DISCUSSION: In light of recent tropical cyclone events threatening and/or impacting many parts of northwest and northeast Australia, many people across these parts of Australia have been wondering when things would finally come down.  As these parts of Australia get further and further into this Easter holiday weekend, many will be visiting family and friends across various parts of the country.  As reflected by the high-resolution visible satellite image (courtesy of the Himawari-8 satellite), there are finally relatively calm conditions in place across nearly all of northeastern Australia which is predominantly comprised of the Queensland province of Australia.  Therefore, many people will be getting out and enjoying this holiday weekend with very pleasant weather across the region.  Moreover, there are no current or lingering regional tropical cyclone threats at this time either.
