She's blowing tonight. I'm a little sheltered from the winds but it's pretty constant. I lost a branch or two.

Taiaroa Heads just recorded a gust at 96knots

. You can check out the wind speed at this site (the wind data is down the left hand side).

Not much in the way of shelter down here! I was at 1,600m this evening, and hanging on for dear life.

A frost and 3 degrees this morning. Not a cloud in the sky. Another magic day in Omarama...

The wind has stopped for a day before it goes 180 degrees the otherway with the activity from the tropics
