After the coronial inquiry to the deaths in the Sydney to Hobart race a few years back, the BoM has taken a doom and gloom attitude to weather prediction for the general public.

If you are an oil major, you can buy a decent weather report from the BoM, but for the rest of us it is high winds when it is a total glass off at the beach.

Better off with seabreeze!

T-Shirt in the mail please Laurie!!!
