* SETTLED WEATHER DEVELOPING ACROSS VICTORIA NEXT WEEK *

A high pressure ridge across Victoria will create mild and settled conditions on Monday with light winds.

The main high pressure centre is forecast to remain to the west of Victoria Tuesday to Friday directing a mild S to SW’ly airflow across the State. Mostly settled weather is forecast apart from some isolated showers in the south at times.

No thunderstorm activity is expected across the state throughout next week so the page may become quite until significant weather/storms return to the state.

Thanks Nick. As much as I’m enjoying the pleasant temperatures, this weather is so boring! All that tropical humidity was wasted here in Melbourne in recent days, no decent rain or storms to show for. ☹️

Thanks Nick. We got missed by storms at Kyneton area again. The usual. Got these clouds on Timelapse, all we get here!

Skipping past Melbourne? Or are there any more Nick?

Is it hitting Orbost

It feels like we are living on the equator here in North Central Vic with the humidity...no wonder we getting these isolated storms.

Very moody over the High Country from Longford Vic. Sale is getting rain, but sunny and hot here

Just copped torrential downpour here in West Gippsland. Over now.

Morning all. There is a chance of thunderstorm activity over Victoria's far northeast and eastern parts this afternoon. The risk area is fairly small, so it wasn't worth attaching a map. If storms do occur, they are not expected to be severe. ... See MoreSee Less

The thunderstorm risk has diminished for the Melbourne area, and a cooler SW wind change is moving through the area as we speak. Isolated thunderstorms are still possible for eastern and northeastern Victoria throughout the remainder of this afternoon and evening. The bulk of the state will see settled and warm-hot conditions for the next two days (Wednesday and Thursday), but storms are expected to return to the state on Friday and Saturday. ...

* VICTORIAN THUNDERSTORM FORECAST FOR TODAY, TUESDAY, 3RD DECEMBER 2024 *

Thunderstorms are possible across central and eastern Victoria, continuing through from midnight. Storms are most likely through central parts initially, then the area of highest risk progresses eastwards during the morning with the movement of an upper trough. There may be a slight lull in lightning activity during the day, before thunderstorms initiate again during the afternoon along a cold front, contracting out of the state by midnight Tuesday.

SEVERE thunderstorms are possible in eastern Victoria, with SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS LIKELY in the northeast. Severe thunderstorms are expected from the early afternoon as the cold front moves into eastern Victoria.

DAMAGING WINDS, LARGE HAIL or HEAVY RAINFALL are possible with severe thunderstorms as they become organised. HEAVY RAINFALL is possible with storms generally due to high moisture in the atmosphere. INTENSE RAINFALL is possible in the northeast, most likely near the border.

Any chance in central Vic. I have a few gardening jobs and hard to decide if to go or not. Always weather dependent.

Nothing for Melbourne?

Whats the yarra Valley looking like?

Is this going to hit Benalla ?

As someone who lives right next to Mount Buffalo and is right in the middle of the white section, I’m very interested to see what happens in the early hours of tomorrow morning.

You're a legend. Thanks (again) Nick.
