Vic Cold Outbreak July 31 to August 2

[Sererny]

Finally snowing properly here in Tanjil Bren after sleet, snow, hail and rain on and off all day

[Onetahuti]

Just called my grandpa who came from Europe last week to visit. He can 100% confirm it was/ is sleeting at home. Who better to trust if not a European when it comes to snow


onetahuti can you confirm this at all? I won't be home for another hour.

Sorry I was at the nursing home, occupied with running program so not looking at the weather outside, just home now.

[dagget]

Snow here a plenty, was 0.5c in trentham and just had great snow. Will post pics when I can.

[Wilko]

Was hailing here in Highett half an hour ago and the hail is still on my patio

[Australis(Shell3155)]

Walking through the school and had my first experience of tiny frozen cold things getting in around my collar till I got the umbrella up..
Great Day..

[Geoff]

Sorry folks, nothing worth showing from here today other than a sprinkling of hail around the edges of the garden, it all still looks green, I feel cheated!
Seems to be the western burbs turn now for a change, good for them! We're in a bit of a radar hole here now, but seems to be more heading up from the south.
I'm still hopeful for a nice white start to the day tomorrow, though it could make getting off the hill to go to the airport to pick up our visitors a bit interesting!
Oh, and we've had 22mm of everything since it started late yesterday.

Agreed about the radar hole. so angry right now about it. Mount dandenong has had a massive run of bad luck this winter

[I_Love_Storms]

Mt Dandenong did do well earlier this afternoon but not enough sustained snow for it to settle. There was a lot of snow fall though. Hasn't been a heap of precip w the old outbreak but that's fairly common this time of year with the cold bay. A cold air surge like this in spring would produce a lot more rainfall

[Geoff]

I changed my mind, here's one I took this afternoon with some big flakes falling, I missed the heaviest snow but you can see the blurry flakes...

[HarleyB]

The very coldest air I feel is coming through the South West now, but it looks like the moisture is rapidly dwindling along with it. Looks touch and go for the Dandenongs tonight now unfortunately

[Thunderclap]

Just went to the top of Macedon 6-7cm drifts trees all frozen and snowing all the way down to Mt Macedon pub on the way home, now in gisborne and the odd flake is mixing in with the rain at 2.9C

[mick]

A flang and a BOOM from the Bay! Looks to be the lil cell currently off Portarlington and moving fast!

[stevco123]

Just witnessed lightning from that cell chiming towards the south Eastern suburbs

[Wilko]

Going ballistic in Mordy
Having dinner at Bridge Hotel and lightning galore

[SC.]

Just heard a couple of rumbles here. 6.6ºC

[Wilko]

FLANG FLANG

[HarleyB]

Epic hailstorm just passed through here at Nunawading. 5 minutes was all it took for an inch of small, soft, slushy hail everywhere. Bring it on if there's more to come!

[Thunderclap]

BOOM snowing in Gisborne changing to rain at about 420m dumping above 550m 2.2C here!! Loving it

[wolfcat]

Coating of Peasize hail in the last cell to pass over head, abut 4 loud and close strikes as well.

[Blackie]

A flang and a BOOM from the Bay! Looks to be the lil cell currently off Portarlington and moving fast!

Flangs and heavy hail here too with this burst.

Awesome day like the old days of the 80's/90s. Most beautiful looking front and cold pool. Have archived the sat pic into the best fronts folder
