Getting beyond the joke now ,it’s only about 16 degrees today in many suburbs 🥲

I certainly agree! It has been far to consistent the cold weather, I understand the limitations and character of our climate down here in VIC, but this Summers cool conditions have dragged on.

Looking at the long term forecasts, looks as though Summer has finally come to play down here for a while. Nothing extreme though, which is good.

On another note, am I the only one who has felt bloody freezing for the most part of December?

A long way out... But there seems to be early signs of some real heat heading south from the 3rd of January onwards?

Impressive system with eastern Melb once again doing the best. Reminds me of the April rain event that dumped 50-70mm across much of the metro overnight Aecsss C nailed this event like EC had the second band developing in the SW then dumping on us in the early morning 49mm here another big rainfall...

I retract my ho-hum comment! Thunder and lightning is now here, oh yes!!!

Radar for the rest of the evening looks pretty ho-hum....

Nice cell just popped up over in the eastern suburbs, near Clayton and Glen Waverley

Fairly sure we’ve had several days over 20c already :) We haven’t hit 20 since 15 October. We’ve never had a full run of teens from 16-31 October since records began in Melbourne. It’s already hit 19.4 in Melbourne today so it’s close! Aha that explains why I haven't been able to thaw out over the ...

What a week just days of E, SE winds and weather moving E to W as the upper low just sits and spins over the NSW SA border. Huge stroms in Qld then NSw but sadly not for us. The strong Ely winds atm just wont let up quite impressive really ad will blow most of the week to Wet week for Gippy and the...

Quite heavy drizzle has set in here in Truganina over the last 10 minutes.

Any chance of the sun poking out from this mid level cloud ?
I’m desperate for some storm action

I'm not liking the chances of any sun poking out, cloud looks pretty thick on the satellite image. I'm happy to be surprised though

There is a forcefield west of Melbourne, as soon as it reached Melbourne's western plains, Pacman formed a gaping hole as was evident on the radar

Not complaining we had lovely rain overnight.

La Nina is official as of today, so hopefully she delivers. Will be interesting to see how it plays out compared to 2010/11/12. BOM says it's not as strong, but I don't think anything's off the table right now. Big blob of rain passing through Adelaide right now, will move through Mildura tonight. ...

Friend reports it is snowing at Gisborne.

Amazing, now please snow in Truganina...
Our elevation is far to low, wishful thinking though.

Bloody freezing! Impressive temperatures...

Has anyone checked the radar as to what has crept over the SA/VIC border???

Hmm, we could be in for an unexpected surprise later this evening...

Oh yes that was me neighbour, moaning and groaning when all the rain was slipping south, we did ok in the end here in Truganina. May I say you are doing an incredible job with your site and weather station readings, a great service to our community. I used to actively follow your reports back when ...

Out for a late night walk and geee it's beautiful and balmy!
