The Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) is the official source for Melbourne’s weather, and the live forecast above shows today’s conditions across the metropolitan area. For a city known for “four seasons in one day”, the BOM’s detailed hourly and district‐based outlooks are essential for planning around the unpredictable shifts that often roll in from Port Phillip Bay.
What does the BOM forecast for Melbourne today?
The live forecast above gives you the current temperature, wind direction, chance of rain and UV index for each suburb – from the CBD out to the Dandenong Ranges. The BOM updates Melbourne’s official observations every 10 minutes from stations at Olympic Park, Melbourne Airport and Frankston, so the data you see is always fresh.
How reliable are the 7‑day and 10‑day forecasts?
The BOM’s seven‑day outlook for Melbourne is typically accurate for broad trends – a cool change, a settled spell or a thunderstorm risk. For the weather in Melbourne 10 days or beyond, confidence falls as models diverge; the bureau uses ensemble guidance to indicate uncertainty. For a longer view, the 28‑day weather forecast from the BOM is a useful guide but not a detailed prediction.
Does the BOM issue severe weather warnings for Melbourne?
Yes – the BOM issues heatwave, thunderstorm, and flood warnings for Greater Melbourne through its Victoria regional office. These appear on the bureau’s website and are linked to the live forecast above when active.
How do I get the weather Melbourne 7‑day forecast from BOM?
The BOM homepage and mobile app offer a “7‑day forecast” tile for Melbourne that updates twice daily. You can also find the bom Melbourne 7 day forecast as a dedicated page on the bureau’s site, with district breakdowns for the city, bayside and outer suburbs.
What’s the difference between BOM and commercial weather sites?
BOM data is the official government record – free of advertising and used by emergency services. Commercial sites like Weatherzone or Elders add their own interpretation. For raw, authoritative observations, always start with the bureau.
