Apparently it's measured at the airport. Don't know how it would effect the readings as its not far from the beach

Would be less in the inlet especially at low tide, around North Shore and Northwards it seems pretty close to me.

i think the airport gets clear wind, maybe it funnels a bit around mt coolum.
a sunshine coast 28 knots is far less "thick" than a south coast nsw 28 knots.... maybe the humidity takes the punch out of it.....
