Northern suburbs, Melbourne - a couple of minutes of heavy rain about 90 minutes ago, only light rain since.

Should I get the tradies to stop building the ark?

Still waiting here in the SE. I could go out for a walk right at the moment. Overcast, there have been a few drops but otherwise clear. Probably due to start raining soon though so only a short walk!

Maybe just a small ark-this time you can leave off the spiders & mice, thanks.

I'm also northern suburbs Melbourne, and only had light drizzle.   Watched the

weather channel and they say it's all happening tomorrow, now.

Terrible news.  I'm on the road tomorrow, heading to SA. 

I might need that ark.  Whizz, check those tradies, will ya?

Must give this a run on-air tonight (maybe with a thunderstorm sound effect running under it):

Northern suburbs Melbourne.  I got 32mm this afternoon.   Not too bad.

But the local strip of shops, being down the hill, got flooded.

10.50pm and this is what's on the radar.

Melbourne is dry..........for now

We had a few minutes of rain yesterday and a gentle shower overnight but I could again go for a walk this morning as it is not raining at the moment. Maybe today will be the day!

I sure *Hope* it is not tomorrow as i have to drive to Brunswick tomorrow morning, on the other side of town almost, and I'll be on unfamiliar roads so I could do without torrential downpours.
