Werribee Weather and Climate
About Us ...
Welcome and thank you for visiting Werribee Weather.
This personal weather station (PWS) in Werribee resumed operating in late January 2010 and is located approximately 32 km south-west of Melbourne, the capital of Victoria, Australia.
Werribee is a suburb in the City of Wyndham. Wyndham is the third fastest growing local government area in Australia and home to strong industrial and technology districts, two major retail precincts, major tourism and open space attractions, intensive market gardening and grazing areas. The main population centres are Werribee and Hoppers Crossing, with strong growth occurring in Wyndham Vale, Point Cook, Tarneit and Truganina.
Werribee Weather is a volunteer Storm Spotter for the Australian Bureau of Meteorology (ABOM) and a member of these weather groups and forums.
The weather observations from this PWS are routinely provided to these weather exchange networks and also uploaded to our Twitter feed.

The name Werribee is an aboriginal name meaning backbone or spine. It is thought that this name was given as the shape of the Werribee River valley in the landscape looks like a backbone. The Werribee River seems to have provided a boundary between the territories of the Woiwurong aborigines to the north east and the Wothowurong to the south west, although other tribal groups visited the area.
