With #Melbourne's top temperature reaching 20°C, the city has now recorded its earliest instance of 4 consecutive 20s (prev 17-20 August 1995). It is also the 2nd instance of a rainless fortnight in August (after 1899). Parts of W Victoria will receive welcome rain tomorrow.

For those wondering where I’ve got to on @abcnews Channel, they have decided to go in a different direction. A huge thanks to all who I’ve spoken to and had contact with during my time on air! Still hanging in there on 7pm VIC news. #abcnewschannel @JoeDoesNews

Late this evening, #Dora will cross the International Date Line, and will then be known as a #typhoon. Only 2nd known system to have completed the EPAC hurricane -> CPAC hurricane -> WPAC typhoon trifecta in reliable modern records. (John 1994)
