11.5 here a bit better than expected and cooling down.

Its not normal 3.5 c this morning with ice on the vehicles.
I hope that's not a signal for the rest of the year.

Looks done here might get lucky this arvo but doubt it Had 4mm overnight and maybe another 5 this morning. Were always on the edge of the main rain except early on in the models when there was a 100 mm bullseye over us, LOL Edit: I suppose one of the missing ingredients was heat and change coming th...

54 mm here made everything damp, over now by the look of it.

I'm still not convinced. No sign of rain here yet.

It is humid and overcast, but a very high cloud base. It's going to take a long time to get going.

20mm is the upper end of my prediction.

Rain to north now Strato Seems to be a slow moving system, give it a chance to get going.

SWW out and a brown rot warning

Another massive fail. 4mm.

Yeah hard to get rain in the middle country here, but i did see 12 mm in my
gauge, though not sure if it was empty. Will check with others later.
Friday is looking promising lol.

I feel quite inadequate reporting another 10mm to 9am .

Pretty good result though, 41mm for the (extended) event and radar suggests it's not over yet.

LOL, find a dictionary, Inadequate is 0 last 24 hours and less than 5 for the whole event.!

LOL, never looked like it
"The Brown Rot Advice for the Northern Country and North Central forecast districts has been cancelled."

Only had a few mm's here was hoping for a bit more, but didn't have great expectations.
Doesn't really look that likely today but bom have put out a brown rot warning for expected rain???????

Looks like another ho-hum 5-10mm system for us later in the week.

GFS has yet another big tropical system for the Top-End and Eastern NSW later in December. Not much happening here except persistent South-easterlies....

Its good though they are not hot northerlies.

I think this current period of our climate for us needs to be renamed.
Something like

La Duda

Though with a bit of luck we might still get the odd trough or 2 move through for a bit of stormy weather.

1.5 mm here and a bit of a blow.
You know its not a proper LaNina year when the cape cape weed gives up growing. Hmmmppphhh

Good range of temps today, 17 at Geelong, 31 at Bendigo, and 43/44 in the north west.
seems to have been a change blown through here

16mm here for the event. Most of that from 5-7am this morning with thunderstorms.

Ditto here Strato with the timing but only 13 in the gauge

Oh yea and wow, we had a bit of wind for a few minutes!!!! LOL

Some black in the storm that went to the south of Ararat, Hamilton had 25 there is
some good rain out there. Looks like I'm in the middle for a while.

Storm up at Cobram, that would be right if you a decent storm that place will get one.
Some damage, lightning and grass fires. A bit of heat probably helped.
Looks like more moving into the Mallee, Wimmera, would not be wanted up there!

I like the look of the clearing out west on the satpic. Could be an afternoon breeding ground

Latest Melbourne sounding is out:

PW 33.3mm, TT 48, LI -2.1C. Air rising will climb from around 7,000ft to the Tropopause at 38,000 ft

yes lightning showing in the northern Wimmera now

Don't hold your breath Strato. The monsoon has been unreliable in recent years. Very iffy what will happen.
