Beaut day yesterday up here with a max of 23C. Looks similar here today.
Monday and Tuesday both stinkers, particularly in the north where places like Mildura will get well into the 40s.
Easterlies on Monday and then cloud on Tuesday should stop it getting too hot in Melbourne, but could still crack the old 100F mark.
Weak rain band entering western Vic early Tuesday and building to peak mid arvo on the trough. The trough sits just east of Melbourne when it goes bang. Typical scenario which could see us get between 2 and 32mm across the metro area. I'd be pretty hopeful of 20mm here, but these can really involve a bit of luck. There's a big tropical infeed, so this is a quite extraordinary airmass being very hot but also humid.
Thinking this one could well set records for high overnight minima. Monday night just looks crazy warm. Progs have into into the 30s and 1am in northern Vic, and in the mids 20s through the night. As for Max's, SA and NSW will see the peak, and definitely couldn't rule out some record highs in spots
