bit of a storm here, dust front followed by rain. my station says gusts up to 66kph!

Check in on your whānau, friends and neighbours, peeps. #WeatherToot

Wind levels back up to "holy shit" this afternoon.

Update: scene I witnessed on Hoddle Street when I went for a walk around lunch time.

Another normal one coming up for Melbourne. Take care, folks. And, if you can, put out a dish of water in a shady spot for the birds.

0900 and it's 34C, it's a hottun

BOM: it's 38, feels like 33

Me: no, it absolutely feels like 38

It’s approximately a gajillion in Warrnambool today so I can only assume Melbourne is a pile of cinder and ash. #WeatherToot

Wind level: periodically pausing and muttering "holy shit"

So windy glasses are rattling on the shelf during the big gusts. #WeatherToot
