Re: Vic - first cut-off low to form for this summer period 26-29/9/22

This system has been prertty underwhelming so far, for me anyway.
Just 0.5mm's overnight and none today so far, MTD is 62.6mm's
0.6mm's overnight at Ballarat Airport and 63.2mm's for the month.
Monthly average is 71mm's.
A liitle bit on the radar further west but nothing to write home about.

Re: Stormy Cold Front to end the Month August 28-

We have had just over 100mm's here this month but so far have only received 0.2mm's today.
Those storms out west are weakening quickly so not expecting anything from them.
Should have some light rain later tonight with a few mm's.
