Looks like a monsoon trough/potential weak cyclone might be possible in the GOC.
Typically if we dont have a heat wave, or a frontal system, for Vic, this typically manifests as a multiday period of easterly drizzle to upset campers.
Not so this year if GFS is correct:
To me this synoptic is quite unusual, typically at this time of the year, we have a weak elongated "sausage-like" high laying W to E over Bass Straight.
This high (if it comes to pass as mooted) would be anomalously strong, and may deliver some very fresh NE'ly wind over E Vic during next week?
This is interesting. Certainly been a long and pleasant mild spell here, but we’re in need of rain it’s been quite a dry December and everything has browned off. The sunshine has been great for the veggie garden.Petros wrote: ↑Sun Dec 26, 2021 7:15 pmPetros wrote: ↑Thu Dec 23, 2021 6:07 pm Seems a fairly settled period over Christmas/Near Year proposed from all models for Vic.

The latest synoptic:
To me this is a significant weather anomaly for this time of the year - not in terms of the latitude of high, but in terms of its intensity, and, its circular "mid winter style over central Aus" shape.
For example, here in Nth Central Gippsland, the last time we have recorded a pressure of 1030hPa was back at August 8th. So to have a pressure in excess of that, potentially traverse over Tassie, in coming days, is definitely something I have not recorded over the past 30 years.
I wonder what impact it will have over the cyclonic systems while it's in play? Certainly it potentially can advect a mass of humid air from Qld down into E Vic later this coming week?
It looks relatively sedate on all of this morning's model runs. Perhaps some cold and blowy Southerlies on a few days, but nothing unusual. Looks like quite settled weather under a big anticyclone too after that.Australis(Shell3155) wrote: ↑Tue Jun 21, 2022 7:50 pm Not liking those dates,
