Grab a kid's rig & get out there KOTP! We've got 45kt winds forecast for tomorrow, which will amount to +55kt gusts...I'll definitely be inside if anyone needs me.![]()
Not mine but my work's weather station I set up a few years ago:
68.7 knots, 0 degrees (I think that means north), 00.39 (I think that means 12.39am), 15/7/2010
I'm not sure if that is 100% accurate or not.
The wind speed measured at the top of one of the container cranes at Freo at 2pm ish topped out at approx 140 kmh. This is about 50 metres above ground level....
Way too windy for me ![]()
