I love the Melbourne AWS...its such a wacky idiosyncratic metering point....
For example, right now it is pointing South and showing 4 to 8 knots.
Fawkner is N 13-15
Melbourne Airport is N 16-22
Moorabin NNE 8-11
The only meter showing any south at all is Avalon at ESE.
The history at
www.seabreeze.com.au/graphs/vic.asp tells a tale...
Does anyone know where this meter is kept? In the BOM underground carpark? Or is it affected by the rotating propellors on the heads of the meteorologists?
