ScottiE 174 Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 yup - quite interesting to see how the land mass down there knocks down the breeze, I know nothing about that part of the coast but its quite intesting seeing the effect on PW Link to post Share on other sites

BNG 56 Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 I see Kidnappers has just gone Northerly in a big way with 30+ gusting 40 from the N, that will make it not much fun for the back markers. Link to post Share on other sites

ScottiE 174 Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Wonder if that's because the anemometer is 100m above sea level? Oh and well done Boo Boo - went from looking pretty sick to pretty slick! Link to post Share on other sites
