Severe storms to light up eastern Australia's Christmas
www.abc.net.au
Violent thunderstorms are likely across eastern Australia this Christmas, rivalling some of the most intense and widespread storm outbreaks of the past few decades.

It looks like Melbourne won’t get the worst of this, but we could have some heavy storms over Christmas.

Remember if you are driving to slow down and pull over if necessary, and don’t drive through floodwater. Driving through floodwater can be extremely dangerous, and if you try to drive under a bridge and get stuck we will also all point and laugh at you (this applies whether it is due to flooding or excessive height).
