wheels 543 Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 Freezing is an understatement and I know I am saying nothing new to many of us all over the Country at the mo.Anyway, I thought some might like to know, The Brothers Island recorded a gust of 167Km/hr this morning.

Guest 000 Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 Two days ago in Austria - 32°C Today in Whangamata - 10°C. I'm feeling a bit sorry for myself. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
wheels 543 Posted July 13, 2017 Author Share Posted July 13, 2017 Yes it is a great Pic IT, but I can't take credit for it. It was on my FB page and I assume it was from our local rag, the Marlborough express. But who took the Pics I don't know. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
wheels 543 Posted July 13, 2017 Author Share Posted July 13, 2017 I am hoping to pop through to Waikawa tomorrow to check on another Crew Members boat for them. If anyone has a boat out on a mooring they want to know if it is OK, let me know. Mind you, I would likely just post anything I see that is not looking good. Enviro has just inspected all the moorings and I have not heard of any issues, Port Marl require 2 yrly inspections here Quote Link to post Share on other sites
