Oh dear,
please let's not start the 'it's a fizzer' nonsense when the system hasn't even arrived here yet or developed properly.
Look at the models and the forecast. There is only 1-5mm forecast by 10am tomorrow for most of the state and 10mm+ in the far SW corner. Most of the rain will be tomorrow afternoon and evening continuing through to Sunday afternoon. The rain will develop over the state, it is not just one big band coming in from the west like you get with a simple cold front. It is a low pressure system forming over us tomorrow and the situation is a lot more complex.
Also it is a multi part system. A lot of the rain will come through tomorrow from the NW ahead of the low passage, the rest of the rain will come up from the SW as a wrap around feature and then showers continuing as the upper cold pool sits over us on Monday/Tuesday. It is not just a flash in the pan rainband coming through overnight and tomorrow then clearing out.
It is just so frustrating. We are having the best rainfall year in 10 years through most of VIC and it could end up even wetter than 2000 in many areas, no one has 'cried fizzer' once this year. Now that we have a really major system coming through some people want to make out it won't happen.
