Melbourne Heatwave

The forecast of four consecutive days of 40 degrees Celsius or more from tomorrow has Melbourne poised to break some hot weather records.

Melbourne has not had three days in a row above 40 since 1959.

The mercury is expected to reach 38 today before climbing to 41 tomorrow then dropping back slightly to 40 until Sunday when it should be a relatively cool 31.
