Gusty winds, waves and wild weather to hit Melbourne

Melbourne to be battered by strong, gusty winds
and monster wave as will weather rolls in.

Thought Sunday's storms were rough? Well there could be worse to come - and soon - with the SES predicting chaos on Tuesday with winds of 100km/h and seas topping seven metres.

Wild storms on Sunday caused widespread blackouts across the state, and left about 36,000 homes without power, but they're merely a foretaste of what's to come.

Strong, gusty winds are tipped to batter Melbourne on Tuesday afternoon, shortly before a forceful cold front hits the metropolitan area at about 4pm.
