Around 1500 households are facing another three weeks without electricity, after wild storms hit the Dandenongs ten days ago.

But the government says another 1450 households will be without electricity until about 10 July.

More bad weather predicted for this weekend could create further problems, with high winds and another 30mm of rain predicted for the Dandenongs.The state's emergency management commissioner Andrew Crisp has warned people to stay away from the area."We don't want those stickybeaks, you are getting in the way," he said.

So far, almost 130 homes are so badly damaged they have been deemed uninhabitable, while a further 118 are damaged but can still be lived in while repairs are carried out.
