Tecoma, in the Dandenong Ranges east of Melbourne, can expect a mild, often damp climate today. The live forecast above shows the current conditions for this hillside town, a short drive from Belgrave along the Puffing Billy Railway corridor.
What is the typical weather pattern for Tecoma?
Tecoma sits in a cool, elevated pocket of the Dandenongs, which means it regularly receives more rainfall and cooler temperatures than inner Melbourne. The town’s proximity to the Dandenong Creek valley and surrounding forests creates a microclimate where fog and drizzle are common, especially in autumn and winter. Summer days are generally mild, rarely exceeding the high 20s Celsius, while winter nights frequently drop below 5°C.
How does Tecoma’s weather differ from Belgrave?
Located just a few kilometres north-west of Belgrave, Tecoma shares a similar weather pattern to its neighbour. Both towns experience the same cool, moist air flowing off the ranges. However, Tecoma’s slightly lower elevation can mean marginally warmer overnight lows than Belgrave’s higher centre.
