Wind

WTF is up with the wind this summer?
Its blowing more than a bus load of broke whores and is giving me the shits (especially while I am not working).

You know it's been windy when - you go food shopping with the mrs .

                                                     you start considering painting the house .

                                                     ants have made a nest on the tub . 

                                                     the lawns looking pretty specky .

Conspiracy Theory?

Thu, 2014-02-06 19:58

 Maybe these wind predictions are just a ploy by Seabreeze the sell more kites cause the real values seem to be lower than the predicted? Or maybe just going mad with cabin fever.

Also check out willyweather...they all use the same data, but I reckon this has better predictions...

Just gota look down the

Thu, 2014-02-06 21:30

Just gota look down the seabreeze page at the logged wind data for several locations. Their forecast is only close to what Rotto ends up getting. I only use the page to look at the wind data so far at OR, ok if your fishing inshore, but sb may be an accurate indication of what offshore conditions may be like. Ill soon learn about it now I have a tub to go ow. I still always let bom affect my decision in the end anyhow
