Victoria has recorded its windiest July in at least 20 years and it will stay blowy for at least a few more days, according to the Bureau of Meteorology.
Senior meteorologist Dean Stewart said a succession of fronts were behind the windy weather.
"We've had lots of frontal systems coming across Victoria and with those frontal systems, even though they haven't produced a lot in the way of rainfall, they have produced a lot in the way of wind," Mr Stewart said.
Two more fronts are making their way to Victoria which will see wind and some rain hit the state overnight and on Tuesday, he said.
The first front will come across southwest Victoria on Monday night and hit Melbourne before dawn, before a second front moves in on Tuesday.
