00:00Hello and welcome to this Victorian James weather update for Friday. We have got a system that is moving across the southeast, so our stretch of frosty nights and sunny days has come to an end.
00:11High pressure is out to our east, but now we've got a cold front that is sliding across the southeast. Sliding meaning that it's not going to bring us much wet weather.
00:18The cold front in behind it, while it looks nice, also will slide across the southeast and not bring us much at all, despite all of this lovely moisture that's coming in from the Indian Ocean.
00:27Keep an eye on that, though, because that should help us out next week.
00:31OK, that's our current situation, the big situation that was in New South Wales here with the flooding rain that is now easing as well.
00:38Let's have a look day by day. We've zoomed into the southeast here, so all of that now offshore, the heavy falls.
00:43Us here, we're really not seeing much as this front slides across during the day on Friday.
00:49Have a look at Saturday. There's hardly anything in through that, and by the end of the day, you guessed it, the next high pressure system is overhead.
00:55That's for Saturday. Here we move into Sunday. High pressure is down in through here.
01:00This is offshore, not affecting anyone, but there's a big weather system that is happening over in the west.
01:06Is that heading our way? Yes, it is. Let's have a look as that moves in.
01:10So here's Monday. Feet of tropical moisture, juicy northwest cloud band, lots of low pressure in behind it, working together and heading to us.
01:19Where is the high pressure? Ah, it's up in through here.
01:22No longer down in the southeast, no longer blocking us. It's out of the way.
01:26So this will be able to actually move through.
01:29Let's zoom in and have a look at what we can expect for the rest of the week.
01:32So it changes on Tuesday.
01:34Here we are. Cold front up to here by the end of the day, looking at 5 to 10, 2 to 5.
01:40So a nice little fall as it comes through.
01:42It's not just one and done. It is day after day.
01:45So there we have Tuesday. Let's now move into Wednesday.
01:48Big falls here, slowly turning to snow in the Alps.
01:51Nice in the southwest, 5 to 10, a bit less in the northwest as it moves through.
01:55That's Wednesday. Let's now have a look at Thursday.
01:58It keeps coming and into Friday. It keeps coming.
02:02There may even be some more into next Saturday.
02:04So from Tuesday, things change.
02:06We've got cold front after cold front moving through rather than sliding across the southeast.
02:11That is going to add up.
02:12So nothing really now across the weekend.
02:15Very light falls. That is all a millimetre at best.
02:18But next week, yes, from Tuesdays through to the end of Friday, I've got this here.
02:2225 to 50 millimetres in these parts of the southwest, mainly near the coast,
02:27but in that southwest corner of where it's 15 to 25.
02:30As you head inland, 10 to 15, even 5 to 10 in the Mallee there.
02:34And it extends into southern New South Wales as well.
02:37No, this isn't a system for East Gippsland because we've got the rangers in through here.
02:41We've got the rangers there.
02:42It's the dry side of the rangers for this particular weather system.
02:45So it's the southwest up into the northeast, and it slowly decreases as you head into the northwest there.
02:51So some nice falls that are coming our way.
02:53What does that mean for Melbourne?
02:54Let's have a look.
02:55We've got cloudy skies.
02:56No more of the frosty starts.
02:58No more of the sunny days.
02:59Clouds for Friday.
03:00There may be some very light, patchy rain moving through.
03:03I wouldn't even take an umbrella.
03:05As we go into Saturday, we've got a mix of sun and clouds.
03:07There's some nice sunny breaks coming in through there.
03:09There's just the odd shower coming in.
03:11It's not going to add up to very much at all.
03:13Sunshine returns during the day on Sunday.
03:16That's our next cold start.
03:17But then it's 15 during the afternoon.
03:19Temperatures jump up again on Monday as our winds turn northerly.
03:22And then cloud builds during the day.
03:24From Tuesday, that's when it changes.
03:27Have a look at our top temperatures.
03:2818, 15, 14, 11 or 12 is going to next week.
03:33So it is a colding trend as we go along.
03:36And there is also plenty of wet weather as that comes in.
03:38So each and every day, there's lots of showers streaming through,
03:42tending to steady rain at times.
03:44That's the latest.
