WE usually get more wind in an El nino ( is that the name I've forgotten) 
. It seems it's swinging more towards La Nina this summer which I assume means more rain storms, low pressure troughs & less wind..? Not many summer NE's unless associated with rain ..??
NSW central Coast / Newcastle area.
What do others think? Hope I'm wrong.
I raised the La Nina thing in the SA forum in September. Less or more wind depends on where you live.
The northern beaches of Adelaide rely heavily on the SW seabreezes where as down south, Sellicks beach relies on SE channelling through gullies. El Nino is best for the SW where as La Nina is best for the SE.
The La Nina SE works against the SW seabreeze resulting in a bad inconsistent season for northern beaches.
Long story short, the La Nina is not expected to be a dominant this year and we've had a couple of seabreezes kick in at the northern beaches. But it's certainly far from ideal where I live.
) and we have lake illawarra for the westerlies, so far produced 42 kntsD]
Yeah I know there is great windsurfing down there. I lived in a few places around Wollongong for a while, Primbee and Willawarra. I had a board especially for the westerlies at Lake Illawarra, a Bombora 260.
I'd love to live near Jervis bay if there was a lovely quiet private large acreage 10 mins from the water ( that I could afford!)..
already a much much better season here in SEQ than last year. hopefully la nina not quite so agro for you guys this season too
jervis bay looks great
