How many times is the forecast going to change!

How can i plan around this come on BOM I know you look at these forums to get clues about the weather....are the cows sitting? Are the frogs hiding? What are the ants doing? We need a ground hog! One things for sure if Brownie hasnt got his gear in the car its windy.....................

It's that time of year. Fronts do their own thing, and there's no telling how far up the coast they will come until they do.
Southerly busters are promising, but often fizzle. Don't forget the BOM is still working under the shadow of the infamous Sydney to Hobart race where a bunch of people drowned, so they overcall stuff badly to keep the yachties and stringies safe.

Reminds me of the BOM.
It's late fall and the Indians on a remote reservation in South Dakota asked their new chief if the coming winter was going to be cold or mild.
Since he was a chief in a modern society, he had never been taught the old secrets. When he looked at the sky, he couldn't tell what the winter was going to be like.
Nevertheless, to be on the safe side, he told his tribe that the winter was indeed going to be cold and that the members of the village should collect firewood to be prepared.
But, being a practical leader, after several days, he got an idea. He went to the phone booth, called the National Weather Service and asked, 'Is the coming winter going to be cold?'
'It looks like this winter is going to be quite cold,' the meteorologist at the weather service responded.
So the chief went back to his people and told them to collect even more firewood in order to be prepared.
A week later, he called the National Weather Service again. 'Does it still look like it is going to be a very cold winter?'
'Yes,' the man at National Weather Service again replied, 'it's going to be a very cold winter.'
The chief again went back to his people and ordered them to collect every scrap of firewood they could find.
Two weeks later, the chief called the National Weather Service again. 'Are you absolutely sure that the winter is going to be very cold?'
'Absolutely,' the man replied. 'It's looking more and more like it is going to be one of the coldest winters we've ever seen.'
'How can you be so sure?' the chief asked.
The weatherman replied, 'The Indians are collecting shedloads of firewood'

Anyone heading out to woodies?

i would say no if that suckers sitting over us

All being well Thursday looks promising. Where's everyone going, Beachies anyone?

Just been down for my morning coffee, Red has a little bit of w in it so maybe Suttons would be a better call

Dunno, didn't look. Just figured it was that time of year for forecasts to get dodgy. Been a few storms around too, which usually means fronts.
Is there not a front ?

I'm at the "look out the window" stage of life when it comes to weather. I used to be obsessed, now I'm just stranded inland for another week or so.

Woody point was a waste of time, did manage to lose another fin thanks to a reef. Nice long walk back to the car
