#9943 | 19 Oct 2015 | Approved | Notes: Wind at river mouth NE but at Teddy's lookout SE. This is usually the case that when the wind is from the south it is deflected off the northern side of the estuary and hits the mouth observation point as if coming from the apposite direction. | |

Sand sloping quite steeply towards river on southern side of estuary. Wind strength and direction at observation point has been entered. Wind strength at Teddys lookout Scale 5 and southerly. Shape of estuary topography causes wind to be deflected I think. |
