Re: Warm week with troughs, showers, storms Nov 7 - 13th

Storms now firing up in the west of the state! Hopefully this gives central a chance to see a flash or 2 tonight ⚡️

Re: Vic: Rain/storm event - 8 November onwards

Looks like we could be in for a record of days in a row below 20, for this late in the year? All these constant cold spells could mean heatwaves to make up for it in Summer?

Re: Cold Nights, Sunny Days.

Heavy fog here, Visibility below 100 meters, 2.9C right now,, the min was just 0.2C the lowest so far. This morning doesn't feel as cold as the others maybe because it really damp and so much fog?

Re: Rain Event - Thursday May 30th - June 4th 2013

Can it possibly be stormy all night? The current storm band in Central Vic area looks to be connecting to the storm band in the NW of the state? Rain getting heavier here.
