A child has had a terrifying near-miss after a piece of metal flew within metres of his head during a Melbourne storm.
Both NSW and Victoria have been lashed with wild weather over the past few days.
In one instance, at Fitzroy, three children were running through a park as strong winds and heavy wild rain pelted down.
Two of the children made it safely past a large tree before the third, who is lagging behind, is almost hit by a large piece of sheet metal.
The metal takes flight flipping over multiple times before just missing the boy.
