Non-stop rolling thunder in Safety Beach. Nice surprise!

Really looking forward to all this, look at that heat!

Quite unremarkable, light rain along Peninsula Link, wipers off by East Link. Radar overestimating.

Here comes summer

Sitting on Safety Beach can see sparks over towards Geelong. Looks like a small storm crossing the bay, northerly picking up now.

Ok ready for some warmer weather now, it's October

Starc contrast to last year, for memory we were just about to head into 7 days of 30+.

As a heat lover, I have a feeling this summer could be one to forget.

Wind, wind, wind and more wind!

Safety Beach copping it large!

Showers off and on in Mount Waverley, a couple with hail, really blowing out there now.

Check out the mini map of Australia cloud formation on the Himawari-8 off the coast of W.A!

Annnnd we have rain on the Peninsula!

Annnnd as soon as I type this it's gone

Solid 1.5mins there!

Rye down to Portsea seems to be bucketing according to radar, everything above and east bone dry.

Heavy patch sitting over Ballarat region now, decent amount in it will be interesting to see if it can get over the force field.

All in all though great day weather wise. So good to finally feel some decent warmth!

No faith for either system so far, force field wiping out the first band and I reckon will do the same for the second.

I'm sat on my deck in Safety Beach with a few beers waiting for either of these to roll over, think I'll be here longer than I thought!

Melb Metro force field in fine form again, for now!

Still nothing on the Peninsula, not a breath of wind and contrary what the radar is saying, no rain. What seems to be coming down from the NE looks to be breaking up over the bay. Hoping to wake during the night to something better.

Snorefest so far on the Mornington Peninsula, not a breath of wind or a single drop of rain!

Super impressive 128km radar loop in Adelaide right now

Watching this grow on the Himawari-8, as JasmineStorm says above, is just something else..

Incredible.

Round 1 about to drop on Adelaide!

Hey all!

Long time lurker first time poster thanks to this system, have been watching it evolve over the past 4-5 days and finally decided to join.

Will be eagerly watching this one from the Mornington Peninsula.

Bring it on!
