There is a low of 945 with a 951 low sitting on top of it developing south of Oz by Wednesday. The weather has been unrelenting the last month....low after low, and constant northerlies. I've hardly been able to get to my boat as I left my wallet on board last fishing trip. I will be happy when i retire and can sail north for winter

It's been a horrible windy winter here in Vic. Have had the boat on the hard stand the last month getting some work done and was hoping to get the headsail off the furler for a minor repair but not a chance.

I have found putting a quilt on top of my mattress stops the cold coming through.
I am then very comfortable in my duck down sleeping bag.
