Vic Trough with possible showers and storms Jan 9-12

Seems like most of it was to the south of epping. Heard thunder now and again and had power drop for a second plus some heavy rain and lighter rain afterwards.

Didn't see anything out of my window

2.2mm at the melb water site

Vic Trough with possible showers and storms Jan 9-12

Had rain in Epping yesterday. Just enough to wet the pavement. Looked like it started getting heavy 1km away. Not sure why a few KM south and east seem to get hit more.

Not sure if we'll get much from what's coming towards us

Interesting how that storm from the SW suburbs is heading in a NE direction. Don't see that often.

I'm hoping it hits Epping and doesn't vanish before it hits here.

Warming up for a hot week: 11 December -

Weatherzone says a 18.7 dewpoint and 40.7 degrees at 5pm today

If this comes through surely that has to be a record dewpoint in the Melbourne metropolitan area for 40+.

Looks like melbourne airport has dewpoints around 12 degrees at that time. I wonder why.

Me not being in Epping seems to be a magnet for storms lately.

Off to the city for a work event ..

Hey cool, finally managed to sign in after years :D

I missed a storm at home in Epping this afternoon due to going to the office but it doesn't matter Looks like one(hopefully a few) is coming from the north now.
Sometimes the ones from the north strengthen a lot more by the time they hit the ...
