What do the colours and symbols on the weather map mean?

Coloured areas show satellite-derived cloud cover or rainfall intensity, while fronts (blue triangles for cold, red semicircles for warm) mark change boundaries. The 10 day synoptic chart Australia available from BOM gives a broader outlook.
