Just stumbled across this handy page.
I've been using the BOM site for years but never came across this before.
So for those few of us that don't have a local Seabreeze forecast here's the next best thing.

Brown's lake after work's looking do-able.

Looks like that's only available in Victoria.

While I was looking for it I found this though:

www.bom.gov.au/marine/wind.shtml

There used to be a similar chart available commercially from the BOM I once had access to on a minesite I was working at. I'm not on that site any more, but it gave some interesting long term wind forecasts. Of course, the accuracy of them was only as good as the public ones anyway, so +7 days out wasn't often much use anyway.

Another one which is somewhat less pretty but does cover each of the states and capital cities is http://www.gpats.com.au/php/repository/National.html

The links at the top of the page take you to the various state / city images

Stormy much in Adelaide? [}:)]
