Becoming hot then a low developing with possible showers and storms: January 3-

Just over 27mm on my PWS here in Truganina, approx 23 km directly west of the CBD. Looks like I was in the sweet spot today!

Becoming hot and very windy with bad fire weather: December 25-27

Not feeling overly confident tomorrow, my little boys birthday party outdoors in Glen Huntly around 2PM. I assume we'll get hit by rain? Hoping the run holds off until after 4 PM 😬

Will the rapidly warming Tasman play any role in influencing our weather down here?

Very humid again out there this morning, I'm over in Truganina 23 km directly west of the CBD.

Thought I'd share the temperature forecast for my part of Melbourne this coming week. Not often you say the same temps every day. Not complaining with consistent 24 C maximums each day https://imgur.com/a ...

Warm to hot, then rain and storms: Nov 21-29

Unfortunately I've been indoors during all the action today at work.

However I can report my PWS at home in Truganina recorded a total of 45.8mm. About 23 km directly west of the CBD. Great totals for this area!

Developing low with heat storms and rain: October 16-

In Bali at the moment, hot, sunny and humid... No storms here and very boring predictable weather.

Looking at the gauge back home in Truganina, 23 KM directly west, just behind Laverton North. My gauge at home is showing 41.2mm.

That's crazy rain for my spot, does that sound about right? Missing ...

Slow moving easterly trough: May 9-12

Almost 20 mm in the gauge overnight here in Truganina.

I would say our climate here in Melbourne has certainly become a very mild one in recent history. Winter is knocking on our door, very doesn't feel like it.

Re: Becoming warm to hot, followed by showers: January 22-27

BOM always seems to under forecast maximums this summer for my locality. Like many others we have to rely on MetEye for localised estimates.

Obviously the difference is very marginal and within range of approximately. I'm over in Truganina, 23 KM direct west of the CBD.

Days like today where it's ...

I certainly wouldn't complain about a nice long Indian Summer. March 2013 and 2017 spring to mind!

Hardly summer weather, long pants and jumpers, No Sun.

I wouldn't mind a bit of warmth and sun today. We've got the rest of the year to enjoy the cool overcast conditions. :(

Re: Developing low with more rain and storms: January 15-20

Hey gang,

Just a curious question about Summer this year here in Melbourne specifically.

I've been watching the charts this summer and anytime there is significant heat incoming and getting close to Melbourne, it seems to dissipate and head back North on the next ACCESS chart run for example.

I'm ...

Re: Becoming humid with showers, storms and rain: November 22-30

Picked up another 10.5 mm overnight.

If anyone is vaguely familiar with the western plains on the fringe of Melbourne's west. I'm over in Truganina about 22 km directly west of the CBD.



It's usually the arid drylands here, my amateur gauge has already recorded 43.38 mm for the month. Must have ...

Any chance of a pattern change coming ? Have to say I’m thoroughly sick of being plunged back into winter all the time . It’s the second week of December! And winter began in June!

No real rainfall to speak of here last night in Truganina - however we were surrounded by a lovely light show. Looking south east and north!
