A cool spell in Melbourne is forecast to continue, potentially making it the coolest November period in almost two decades. Melbourne is well on track recording for the coolest 8 day spell in November since 1994. Today is the fifth day in a row that Melbourne's maximum temperature has not exceeded 20 degrees, and is expected to remain below 20 degrees until Friday. A complex low pressure system which is sitting off the coast of Eden is moving in a south westerly direction, directing cool onshore winds towards Melbourne from Bass Strait. These winds are contributing to the period of cold weather which Melbourne has been experiencing for the past few days. Within this cool spell, Melbourne could potentially experience its coolest pair of November days since 2006. The temperature must remain below 16 degrees for 48 hours in order to surpass this record, and with a forecast of 16 degrees for today and tomorrow, there is a fair chance of this happening. Warmer weather and clear skies are expected as the low pressure system moves south and dissipates. We can look forward to temperatures of around 21 degrees and clearing skies for Melbourne over the weekend.
