Quite the summery spell coming up with warm uppers and light northerlies. Weak trough mid week and stronger change towards Friday might trigger the odd shower or storm. Progs are toying with some heavier falls, but very hit and miss.
Melbourne should see it’s first 30C for the season. Will make the high 30s in the northwest.
Btw keep an eye out for the Pilbara to approach 50C. EC has been showing 3-5 days of high 40s touching on 50C. Would break the December national record if that happens.
The offical Hilly Billy AWS is now packed so no observations from Ferny Creek. If we get permits, hope to be in Tasmania come Saturday morning.

Best of luck with the move - exciting times!
Looking forward to those Tassie reports. I've spent at least a couple of weeks there every year since late teens and I love the place... mostly.
Some convection appearing on the Radar in the Riverina region this afternoon. I suspect a fairly lively afternoon tomorrow with LI's now predicted to be around -4. Summer might begin with a Bang!
Incidentally, Nov 2021 here has been much colder than average (Max 22.3c vs 24.8c, Min 9.6c vs 9.9c). We haven't seen a November this cold in the past 25 years.
Only 2 days above 30c, vs the usual 6.
58mm of rain vs. 45mm average. Only just above average rainfall. I was expecting a lot more but the predicted deluges in late-Nov didn't come. Good harvest weather thankfully.

Yep looking good for some storm action Wed & Thursday afternoons
EC and GFS are suggesting that storms are likely tomorrow, however steering looks poor, i.e they may not go anywhere, they'll need to form overhead for you to see one. Thur might be better in this regard.
Yes, looking touch and go for showers/storms. The potential is there, especially Thursday, but it’s hit and miss, as has been the pattern for a couple of weeks now.
We’ve finished the month here on 150mm. That is mainly due to a couple of big falls in the first half of the month. It has been patchy and actually quite dry overall in the second half. But 430mm in total for spring, so a pretty good season overall. If only every spring could be wet!
I haven’t totalled the temps yet, but I’m sure we’ll be on the cooler side for this month. We’ve only had a few days above 20c. A very warm 28c max today, which felt sweltering!
Potential in clouds forming to the west. general clouds already up and it is warm. chance for storms later and lightning active. dont think they will move fast so more time on the downpours...
Quite unstable today according to latest sounding - Lifted Index of -5.9 and Total Totals of 50. Both these numbers (particularly the LI) normally indicate a good chance of scattered storms.

Those are quite nasty. Could be some very strong storms. Radar starting to fire up on the wind change.
