BOM Observations

October 3rd, 2007

Phew… Will this wind ever stop!?!

After a blown out long weekend filled with non-flying activities it’s about time someone turned that bloody fan off.

In the mean time check out the new functionality added to the BOM radar images. The most useful of which is the visual representation automatic weather station observations. Put a check in the “Weather Observations” box down the bottom of these pages and look what appears on the map.

This has turned into a great resource for tracking those sea breezes.
