early risers may get the best of the wind tomorrow. Except in Perth where BOM is forecasting a wind shadow. Hardie, Cobblers before 8 ?

Tuesday: N/NW winds 30/40 knots with squalls to 55 knots in showers and thunderstorms. Winds easing to W'ly 20/30 knots by late morning and W'ly 18/23 knots by late afternoon. Higher than normal tides and dangerous surf conditions expected.
I got down to woodies before 7 and was going to rig up... but there were some rather chunky bolts of lightning hammering down not so far away. Might have made it in time for a few runs maybe high 30s (it was gusting to about 25-26kts). Then it started pissing down and it all died. Was cool to see an amazing sunrise with no cloud for a big slit along the horizon, with armageddon on the other side... wish I had a camera but I dont take anything like that to woodies.
