This area is being battered BIG time by very strong frontal winds - gusts have peaked near 100kph in the moutains close to home with Mt Dandenong recording a gust of 95kph. Some of the alpine regions to my NE have recorded stronger gusts with Mt Hotham recording 117kph gust earlier today.

The main change and front are only 35mins away from my current location (Box Hill). And there are severe storms embedded in it to my north. Unfortunately, I don't have my camera with me today, so I am unable to post any pics of the current storm, but will post some pics I did get earlier today later when I get home.
