Forecast 37deg but a 20-30 (ie 18-23) seabreeze?

Hmmm.... quick poll will it blow or not
(I'm only in town 2 days and looking for fun (oops that was the other forum )

Won't reach that in Mandurah, hasn't even got close on those 20 to 30 kts forecats, the trough is too close to the coast, particularly the further south you go

unfortunately the bom forecast includes out to rotto... if you look at the graphs rotto has been getting in the 20-30knot region... everywhere else... SFA, mind you of late the river has been windier than the beach (swanbourne/scarbs) which I seriously cant get my head around. Can anyone offer an explanation?

As to weather it will blow. Deffinately not 20-30, maybe in the 18-23 range if your lucky, but yeh, you wont know till the day.
