Friday - just been to the boat to check, and double up some lines. Wind gusts have been exceeding 100kmh and will do for another 24-36 hours,tending south west, so if you have any concerns, best check your lines. My marina seemed more sheltered than my house, but the gusts were still quite strong and jarring.
Westerlies are typical in August, but can be destructive, and varying 10-15 degrees in direction. There are trees down,electricity outages,property damage, airport partly closed, and snow is falling about 100km west of Sydney.
Someone reported having a bird blown into the house through the cat flap! As we say" blowing the oysters off the rocks". But by Sunday, it should ease.
