chasers addict Weather Freak Registered: 11/12/2007 Loc: Bendigo/ Kangaroo Flat, Vic Ra...	If the trough sits along Vic,SA boarder why no storms build up in center to East Victoria because heaps humid air is coming from SE/NE direction...looks like dry hole.. and wind shear is going NE direction.

Petros Weatherzone Addict Registered: 30/12/2002 Loc: Inverloch Vic	Hear from you when you get back TB. Similar to TB weather here, cloudy morning broke up steadily to be fully sunny by late arvo nudging us up to 27.5C event with a very fresh Easterly wind which is still with us now. Agree with Blackie, its surely not that often that we see all the storm cells currently going up in far W Vic all heading WSW'wards!

Ruckle Weatherzone Addict Registered: 3/08/2005 Loc: West Footscray VIC, we can mis...	Just because its humid it doesnt mean there will be storms. You need a trigger. The trigger is the surface trough to the west. Its not that strong so not much is going on to far away from it. As for the uppers, as mentioned this morning we have a pretty warm airmass with a highs analysed by the BOM over us or just to our sth west up till at least 500hpa height. This means the flow over a huge chunk of the atmosphere is easterly (or thereabouts) pushing the storms westward. The most easterly developing lightning active shwr has been the one near Stawell. Ukmet did a pretty good job with today. _________________________ Check out my Youtube channel http://www.youtube.com/user/Ruckle18?feature=mhum for more storms and also a chance to hear my friend Julz sing!(go to my "liked" section.)
