The thickest band of rain we've had since it fired up is about to hit the Monash.
This should be funny

[Kris]

16.5mm so far since midnight. Will prob crack the 25mm by midnight tonight. Looks like we will be getting our predicted 100-150mm over the coming few days. What a year.

[schitzengiggles]

Bugger the rainfall obs.. the good news is there's clearing blue sky to my east with some massive towers in sight.

Only 2 hours too late, but about time.

25.9mm from that lot, now there are towers developing out East and the directional flow has changed, now we are into NE.

Party time peoples, tomorrow could be a huge day for us.

Sounds like Croydon is well under water and the local SES have asked for a wee bit of help.

Steady rain in the CBD but not flash flood conditions by any means.

Most of it seems to have missed our area by the looks of it.

Airport up to 31mm, Mt D 26mm, Monbulk 26mm, Dandenong Ck @ Basin 25mm, Scoresby 24mm.

AMazing falls, the airport will surely have had some disruptions.

Stopped raining here presently. In that last shower activity we recorded 12mm. Just curious, where are your figures from VRB20G45?

[johnno]

Missed most of it here only 2mm with the main 2 lines of storms either going North of me towards the Airport (East to West) Or over the Eastern suburbs WSW moveing towards the bay

[Pane]
