The absence of cold fronts seem to be impacting the rainfall patterns of Western Victoria, as they've been doing in South western WA for a while now. Those rain bands that come down from the north rarely deliver for the Surf Coast, although Saturday was an exception. 21mm for November against an ...

Drizzle picking up here now after a murky humid day. ACCESS-C has about 70mm here tonight so I’ll guess we will see. Victoria basically tracked as expected. Great to see the Otways get some after a such a dry year. It’s very unstable over Victoria atm so would not be surprised to see rumbles next fe ...

4mm so far. Just about what i expected. Certainly didn't/ don't expect storms

Everything depends on the path of the low. Literally by a few kilometres

Seems to be over almost. Wind has turned a cooler southerly,l. Port philip bay surely needs a drink of water, so glad they're copping it

Yeah... a bit meh. Like there's a forcefield. Got a nice downpour but most cells go east or west of us, or come towards me, die, and then redevelop once they pass my area

Go outside and listen. No storms where i am, but hard thunder a few time. Therefore it's a storm day officially

Let me guess... once this band passes, it'll be a mainly fine day with storms on the eastern ranges?

Hygrometer stuck on 100% humidity the whole day today, even in the CBD. that's gotta be some sort of record

... and to add to the strange weather, we're having what seems like some rare sea fog moving in. Humidity almost 100% and quite breezy out there

That humidity is next level. Real Queensland type. HATE IT!

Should be the wettest part of the year, but not this year it seems

I captured this in the morning. Is it the rare Kelvin–Helmholtz cloud?

Real north Queensland type rain. Totals building quickly. 21mm now, still coming down. Humidity 90%.
I doubt we will get severe storms, they seldom happen in Melbourne metro even if conditions are perfect.
Although development looks interesting near the Macedon ranges

Copping it here at the moment. Nearly an hour of heavy rain. Local flash flooding. Luckily the drain system is pretty good in my area with housing around 15-20 years old.
15mm so far and a fair bit more likely.

Low looks go be going over melbourne directly and all the rain is in the north east???
Could well be one of those events that's a failure and actually give us a nice day

Slight chance of a shower forecast for Melbourne. I guess bom got it right then ay?

Hmmm, maybe 3mm tomorrow, similar in a week. Not a lot. Looks like you did ok. Not a drought breaker but freshen things up a bit. Decent rain band though fairly dry low levels ahead of which means pretty strong rainshadows. Be interesting to see if this helps with the crops out west where it’s been ...

Dads Just arrived Darwin to Mildura, He mentioned the crops being eaten by mice and not survived no rain.. Someone on here mentioned Sea lake on was very dry, I think your way hasn’t copped the lack of rain, Keep us updated, last time I headed that way Xmas 23 it was in bad floods, Mentioned was t ...
