Don't go swimming at Melbourne's beaches today – it could make you sick.

| It's best to keep out of the water at Melbourne's beaches. |
That's the message from the authorities, who are urging people to steer well clear of every Port Phillip beach as the bacteria-filled runoff from the weekend's storms pours into the bay.
Indeed it may not be safe to swim tomorrow or right through the weekend.
The Environment Protection Authority is doing water-quality testing on Tuesday, which will determine how bad things are in the bay and how long people should avoid the water.
Read Liam Mannix’s story in today’s Melbourne Age - “Don’t go in the water, Environment Protection Authority warns.”
