I gotta ask this once again and I know there has been many posts regarding the same thing BUT, What the bloody hell is up with the weather forecasting? It says windy as hell and there's not a breath. It forecasts a nice day on the waters and you get cyclonic conditions. Is there, ANYWHERE, a reliable weather site that get's it right? I use weather zone and BOM.

;)G'day mate n hows it going??, was wanderin what appened to ya??..
I'm thinking you may have to stand in line to have that questioned answered lol..Ive missed out on a trip or two due to the reports but most have been near correct at some part of the day :)...
I just read the map, listen to the report , call out to someone allready out on the water and take a chance from there on..
Overall the weather has been strange though..
Cheers

I always look at the chart and then compare that with what the weather man is saying. Then I take my chances

OK so I look at the charts. Problem is I wouldn't have a bloody clue what any of it means. All those lines and barometric pressures mean what???? We have a weather station in Rocky and they can't even get it right. What chance do I have? pmsl. I am just a car salesman. he he he [smiley=laugh.gif]

AAAAAARRRRRGGGGGHHHHHH >:( See what I mean. Yesterdays report said 10-15kn on the weekend so I organise a trip with the mates and today it says it will blow 15-20kn all weekend.I bet tomorrow it will be really 8-13kn. How
F*%$#@ing hard can it be to get it right. They need a new dart board to throw the darts of guesswork at I think. This has stuffed another weekend up for me. i don't know what the hell to do now. Do I throw caution to the wind and not listen to the report? or do I stay at home and do the gardening and curse the weather bureau when there is no wind about after they said there would be? BUGGER!

Newby settle down lad what’s your problem, try ringing the Rocky met (49223597 I think will check the number when I get home) available 24 hours a day and you get to talk to real person they are generally pretty good with their predictions. The long range forecast is for 10 to 15 Kn’s this Sunday if I get the boat back today I might throw it in the water Sunday I will ring you latter

cheeky bugger Jeff. I was in the middle of posting when you updated your post so yes they are the same but different to the first one you put up. You will be on anchor duties during the hookup if you keep this sort of behaviour going. ;D
