Let's see if this blob heading over the ranges vaporises the same as yesterday

Incoming band doesn't seem to have much 'grunt' to it. I hope I'm wrong.

That said, the line of storms way out West near Nhill looks like it's got a fair bit of energy in it.

Cells popping up directly to my North
May be in the firing zone

Looks like things are bypassing the western boredom zone again.
Fingers crossed that changes.

Don't get angry guys. I just want a good storm as much as you do. I have a feeling that we'll be in for a wild night.

Plenty of cu bubbling up just to the north and west of Bacchus Marsh, the sun is out and the temp has rocketed up!!

She's all over the place, a real hot mess. Been up to Ivanhoe and back without a single drop, although the ground was wet.

The radar looks the same EVERY TIME I look at it. I don't know if I'm caught in some kind of time loop or not, but it's been one of those days.

Btw, some of us are born pessimists. Don't judge me! I was born this way.

Anyone who isn't a weather pessimist in this state must be a punching bag. Tell me your secret. I need to learn your ways in order to survive being a weather enthusiast in a state that doesn't provide.

CBD & inner east in for a direct hit by the looks of it.

Taking forever to get here. Hopefully it hangs around for a bit to give us actual rain....

Pouring in templestowe now

Here it comes
Black outside
Day turned to night

Ripper downpour in the city. Cracks of thunder!!!

Flangs and moderate rain in Elwood.

just light rain here

Pouring for last 10 mins and a little bit of thunder

Ripper down pour in the city... but has missed home so far. Pretty frustrating waiting for it to settle the dust.

The upper trough to our west is starting to take over so flow becoming more northerly to northwesterly aloft which improves the chances for central Vic.

Proper rain at last. For all of 5 minutes...

Looks like more on the way from out West.

Keeping an eye on the long band from NW

Flash flooding here. Just checked the gauge 25mm in 15 minutes

Thunder is slowly increasing here atm. Tempurature & Dew point is 22.3 atm according to weatherzone which may be the cause of these storms.
