Not a bad one from QLD's state outlook: laugh

"The high over the Bight will move eastwards over the weekend and push a new
surge of S/SE winds initially along the east coast and will ultimately
re-invigorate the S/SE steam along much of the east Queensland coast. "

Hi all,

I must say that I used to laugh at these a lot before I started doing forecasts. I've proof-read a few of my forecasts before I've sent them off and seen a few doozies that I myself have done! smile It's so easy to make mistakes, especially when you're trying to do forecasts for several regions across Australia! Of course - as long as both sides can laugh about them, then that's good smile

Hey X

I noticed that too - I like the idea of the morning clearing by the afternoon (especially near the islands). At least they can't get it wrong laugh

I wonder if the morning cleared by the afternoon inland though ?

Regards
Simon
