The live forecast above shows the current conditions for Glen Huntly, a south-eastern suburb of Melbourne. This page explains how to interpret that data, what drives the local weather, and where to find live hour-by-hour updates.
What makes Glen Huntly’s weather different from the rest of Melbourne?
Glen Huntly sits about 10–12 kilometres from the city centre and a few kilometres inland from Port Phillip Bay. The bay’s cooling afternoon sea breeze (“the doctor”) often arrives later here than in coastal suburbs, so temperatures can stay a degree or two higher until mid-afternoon before dropping sharply. The suburb’s elevation is low, so fog and frost are rare. For a broader view of the region, see our Melbourne Weather page.

Does Glen Huntly get affected by heatwaves?
Yes, like much of Melbourne, prolonged northerly winds can push temperatures above 40 °C. The bay breeze usually arrives by late afternoon, providing relief, but indoors can remain hot overnight. Always check the weather live feed for current warnings.
Is the weather in Glen Huntly the same as in the city?
Generally similar, but Glen Huntly is slightly cooler in summer afternoons because of the bay breeze, and slightly warmer in winter due to the urban heat island effect. Rainfall totals are also a little higher than the CBD because of its proximity to the Dandenong Ranges.
When is the best time to visit Glen Huntly?
Autumn (March–May) and spring (September–November) offer mild days with low humidity. Summer can be hot, but the bay breeze often makes late afternoons pleasant. Winter is cool and damp, with daytime highs around 13–15 °C.
