Esst Coast Low Obs Test!

Wow this storm is really pounding my obs. Just went out to check the roof tiedowns and all good for now. Rain is crazy sideways and wind is howling. Rivers of runoff. Soaked through but I had to check. Removed everything except the mount head yesterday just in case - glad I did. Hope its there in the morning.

Yep I know how you feel.

I've just been out to check mine. This is the first real weather test it's had but all good so far.

Tomorrow is supposed to be worse so fingers crossed.

Looking at Newcastle weather radar it looks like an eye is forming over Nelson Bay, its hooking around curling clockwise really tighly in that spot and the eye wall is solid yelow-orange.
