These thunderstorms may be dangerous. They're developing so fast! Already I saw some lightning in Templestowe and it's getting really windy!

Got a quick short burst of heavy rain and 1 flash and a bang, think it was the edge of the cell developing over the Dandenongs

Still dark here and just as a type a big burst of wind nearly blew the door off, warnings have us missing this storm as we sit in the middle of 2 but we will see what happens
