Chilly breezy day today with a high of 9.8c. If it clears up tonight and the wind can relax (tough with a southerly gradient at my locale) we may have a pretty good frost.

Hi 'guys'. I have property in central west VIC and like to keep an eye on the weather down there.
Went down a few weeks ago,and it was very green in the west. Quite nice actually because many others area of OZ are stillvery dry.
Anyway it appear yet another trough and front for VIC..

Here are a few notes on this incoming system l have taken from my blog.
I look forward to reading your posts and contributing here..cheers
.....

'Another westerly belt trough for VIC, wednesday the 28th Aug 2019
A precipitation signal from ACC r.
The front arrives on wednesday about 10pm.
The mslp is a curious 1020 hPa as the front hits the Victorian south west coast in the evening. The front and trough migrate across VIC on thursday picking up extra moisture from a low off NE Tassie’ which looks to wrap up some tropical moisture streaming down from the northern coral sea.
This benefits east VIC on thursday with enhanced rainfall and should l dare suggest'
thunderstorm activity.

Good call re timing from ACC g
Front in the west of the state for most of the day. Reaches Melbourne about lunchtime.

A possible storm line embedded in a well defined front line.

Front and trough line passes through east VIC this afternoon and evening.

Reminder to check radar and storm tracker for VIC today

Good job Paul. The forum is looking great.
I am ex weatherzoner .
I just want to say l support what your doing here and good luck in your new venture.


Weatherzone reporting for the end of August.Always like their news clips.BigGrin
At least the report is not above average for change
https://www.weatherzone....ust-for-melbourne/530154



The temperature and rainfall were close to the long term average across the month of August in Victoria's capital.

'Melbourne Olympic Park's rain guage collected 51.4mm, compared to the August average of 50mm.

The combined mean maximum and minimum temperature across the month was within a tenth of a degree of the long term average of 10.8 degrees. Although, the average minimum temperature was around 0.7 degrees above average, the average maximum temperature was 0.5 degrees below average.

Slightly above average cloud cover was the main driver of the warmer than average nights and marginally colder than average days.

August 2018 and 2017 were also quite close to the long term average in terms of temperatures and rainfall.'


>>>>>>. August 3yrs in a row average ,to coincide with the average snow falls we have had these past 3yrs?..Intriguing

Thanks WhiskeyZulu2, yep, cold and wet here. Totally ruined our planned Father's Day lunch, but that is life I guess. Currently 12 degrees and drizzle outside.

Things look like they will warm up tomorrow, which is good. Roll on warmer weather.

Whoo Hoo . Some action on the dartboard from ACC g.
Here are my notes out of the starting gateDrool
cheers

Cut off low from the westerly belt forms around Friday 5th of September and intensifies into the 6th and 7th. (weekend)
This system is likely to affect SE SA, ALL of VIC and many parts of NSW.
ACC g also has it forming an ECL off the coast of NSW.
So a widespread event and something to chatter about for those living in SE OZ

Looks like a bit of showery patchy stuff coming in from the west tomorrow, wednesday about lunchtime, from the west. Some will miss out completely.

Thanks for that 'clare l haven't had time to check the forecast today.

A stream of cold showers coming through Geelong , Ballarat and central district this evening .
Mildura hit the highest at about 25deg c
Ballarat top of 15.

Is it my imagination . Don’t we usually get a few warmer days in the last 2 weeks of winter ?. I must find some time to check the records.

Looks like a hit and miss thing here. Speckled radar
