Some storms popping up over the W district. Not over yet it seems.
US has -3 LIs over Melbourne this evening. Locally there could be 20mm about from any organised storm.

Getting dark to my West.. ESE seabreezes converging with the Westerly winds will aid in helping this covective stuff to develop quite warmish out there

Email from our Ops Manager at work, we're going to have some grumpy clients:
There have been delays due to flooding/landslides between Adelaide and Perth, Melbourne and Perth, Melbourne to Brisbane and also around North Queensland. Add to this the derailment between Adelaide and Darwin which although open now is causing long delays.
Queanbeyan has now been flooded overnight and may cause delays between Sydney and Canberra.

Yep and showing signs of turning left. No CG lightning though. I'm thinking it would be nicely structured with the shear clearly keeping the precip away from the updraft. Would need a hard turn to go toward Geelong but who knows.....
Edit: may have just gone through a split visible on BOM radar.

Going to be a suprise to people these storms approaching Melbourne and the bay suburbs. I don't think it was expected to come the late, or was it?
PS: 8th Dec: Belgrave 19.6mm, Upwey: 20.6mm, me awaiting patiently for my weather station ordered yesterday
