Heatwave set to scorch Victoria

Hot days ahead for northern Victoria.

A severe heatwave is set to scorch much of the state with no relief in sight until the middle of the month.

Northern Victoria will swelter through the week with temperatures tipped to reach almost 40 degrees in some areas.

Southern parts of the state are expected to escape the blistering heatwave, but temperatures will hover around the 30-degree mark for most of the week.
