It's only the occasional "gust" how bad can it be from a 10 knot base

Mark,
Ange never say Kilometres, she always says Clicks, she's a bogan at heart
She also doesn't know the difference between Mil's (millimetres) and Ml's (millilitres), thinks it makes no difference to the expected rain forecast

^^ I was awaiting somebody correcting my maths

I am still astounded when I get off the water in a 20kn ish seabreeze, drive home and see the news, and they report it is SSW at "18kilometres per hour" right then at 6pm. (They all do it so I should not pick on Ange, just she's a great target when claiming to have done all these studies in weather.)

Either I am really good at leaving exactly 30min before it drops heaps or all the weather and news presenters are quite ignorant.

They said it was going to get a bit blowy later in the week, but not that blowy
