In their defense, it's super hard to predict the weather in Melbourne. Between the influences of the Southern and Pacific oceans, plus weather patterns can come from either the North or West. In short, the weather can come from any direction.

For Perth, it all comes from the Indian Ocean and the predictions are pretty accurate as a result.
