Victoria: Rain/Storm event: 29th Nov - 5th Dec (Obs)

[tizza]

a turkey formed right over me, watching it shoot up like that was amazing, if I had time lapse it wouldn't have had to slow it down much, it was boiling upwards at an amazing rate. Just cracked 30c here. Even though the RH and DP's are slowly dropping it's still going to go beserk somewhere over Greater Melbourne today.

3cm hail at Jakes Dairy farm he has passed on to me to tell you guys from the Storm down there

Warning to residents of Lake Nillacoohte, Archerton and surrounds. A very dangerous thunderstorm will affect your area in the immediate future. It is a supercell thunderstorm capable of producing very large hail , damaging winds and capable of producing tornadoes. Take Cover now and prepare for this thunderstorm now!

Looks like that Archerton Cell has some good rotation captured in 3 frams from the doppler.
Any reports or anyone close by who can confirm this?

Rob...

Nasty looking cell south east of korumburra. Look out foster and welshpool

[Supercellimpact]

Anyone got an idea of what this is, maybe a funnel, or inflow tail?

Lightning popping up on radar now just north of Kyneton, cell seems to be building up, will it make it to the city, time will tell.

BTW, absolutely awesome photos guys! Hope this continues after work is over - would like to contribute a bit more.

Yep. First one is very nice!

The other one around 1230 had trouble and that was East of the Airport so be interesting to see how this one goes

Yarrawonga Doppler is looking very interesting at the moment, the wind had picked up here, but they are all going passed me at the moment

The Lancefield cell has completly died as it heads towards Melbourne lets see how the others go following

[Instability]

I went on a mini-chase at lunchtime and ended up in Berwick. Found a nice spot to watch the cells that were in a line out East develop and feed off each other. I saw 3 lowerings but could not tell if there was any significant rotation, including a lovely big column that was slowly corkscrewing itself into one of the cells. Lots of lightning too - about every 15 seconds whilst listening to the Aussie batting line-up fail again

A couple of shots from my aadventure below:

Central Vic looks amazing, big line of storms moving eastward (ish), look to be on a collision course with the southerly (ish) storms from Bendigo.

What will this do to the storms, will it amplify them or act as a spoiler and snuff both systems out?

[Jake Smethurst]

That is one massive storm west of Yarram!!! Large hail in that one for sure.

Had a MASSIVE thunderstorm pass through this region. Went outside to check out two cells to the west of me at about 2.45 pm, lots of lightning and thunder. Infact thunder was continous, still is!! Had very sexy looking wall cloud and very low lowerings. No funnels from what I could have seen, but it had a huge radius, and once it come over, the wind just roared. The hail though, 2-2 1/2 cm big!! Its the first time I have ever seen hail in a thunderstorm and then we had about 10mm of rain in 10 mins. Flash flooding here!! HUGE!!!

[Meso]

Lol, good stuff Jake! Get any photos of the hail?

The cell just north of Daylesford. Now gone E SE
