early risers may get the best of the wind tomorrow. Except in Perth where BOM is forecasting a wind shadow. Hardie, Cobblers before 8 ? Tuesday: N/NW winds 30/40 knots with squalls to 55 knots in showers and thunderstorms. Winds easing to W'ly 20/30 knots by late morning and W'ly 18/23 knots by late afternoon. Higher than normal tides and dangerous surf conditions expected.

Hmmm... looks like B.O.M. upped to forecast. Might have to dust of the 4.2

sorry I cannot make it, am taking in car for a service tomorrow. Otherwise I would have been there honest!

What's that Skip?? What can you smell?? Bloody Hell Skip you been into the Skunk again?

i was down Applecross at 7am,wind 12/22,saw one person already sailing. non-stop rain,too cold to rig up so drove him. still pissed off with missing last friday when it was very windy,warm and no rain.

I got down to woodies before 7 and was going to rig up... but there were some rather chunky bolts of lightning hammering down not so far away. Might have made it in time for a few runs maybe high 30s (it was gusting to about 25-26kts). Then it started pissing down and it all died. Was cool to see an amazing sunrise with no cloud for a big slit along the horizon, with armageddon on the other side... wish I had a camera but I dont take anything like that to woodies.
