Models more or less holding for tomorrow. Freezing level dipping to around 800m, with 850Ts dropping to about -5C (or perhaps a touch lower).

OK rain in southern and mountain areas with 10-15mm in the usual wetter spots. Plains west of Melbourne and north will struggle.

We should see snow in the Dandenongs, but I won't be around to see it :(

Some interesting temp gradients coming up tonight. 18Z GFS has us going from 18c at 4am, 11c at 10am, and 7c at 4pm. That's going to confuse the Daily Min/Max for tomorrow!

Certainly a very impressive system (temperature wise) for Mid-September coming up, that's for sure.

Going to be a pretty wild 24 hours looking at the progs. Gales, a sharp change, showers then a deep freeze. Should see some snow showers in the Dandenongs.

Unpleasant fire weather conditions to the north :o

I'm flying to Sydney around noon and anticipating quite a "flight" as we cross a ~20C temperature gradient.

Hope you get some cloud pics if by a window - should be impressive!

Plenty of dust around here today, lawns, nature strips and paddocks have really browned off and is looking more like summer
than early spring.

Radar looks pretty underwhelming this morning. Was hoping to see a strong band of showers :?

Going to get cold, but showers look pretty sparse away from the coastal strip and ranges. Should see 5-10mm here, though really need more like 25mm to get September back on track...

Week ahead kind continues the pattern of windy spells, but fronts which are moisture starved and quickly anticyclonic.

Cold convection with that trough currently on the border is cranking. Mt Gambier near sea level went from 11c to 5c in the last 80 minutes :)

15C at 2am and 5C at 2pm. Not sure I’ve seen that before. 4mm so far in FC.

Flying into Sydney was parched. Virga around 30K feet and dusty heat below :o
