Summary

[edit]
Description
English: The Suomi-NPP satellite captured this True Color image of the eastern coast of Australia on Nov. 12, 2019, showing the intense bushfires around New South Wales that have lasted for the past five days. The Bureau of Meteorology in Australia recorded a downturn in the weekend’s fire intensity due to a cold front that is moving between New South Wales (NSW) and the Australian Capital Territory (ACT). Made from strong western winds and cooling gusts from the south, the cold front dropped temperatures at Sydney Airport from 90 degrees Fahrenheit to 68 degrees in just 11 minutes on Tuesday evening. As a result, the Bureau stated at 10 p.m. local time that “the immediate threat of severe weather [in NSW and the ACT] has passed, but the situation will continue to be monitored and further warnings will be issued if necessary.”
