We are not having typical Adelaide spring weather. It's very wet today and the following is what we can hope for in the coming days.

The phase of too warm and too nice weather for the season comes to an end now by and by. Shitty is a quite good matching term for what the forecast has announced for next friday

Indeed time has come for warm clothing
Temps are predicted to rise a little bit but weather will remain unpleasant this week (and probably the next three months).

Meanwhile elsewhere: David Lynch's Weather Report 11/21/22

Cycled the white zone the 2nd time this winter (yesterday near the top of one of Billy the mountains remote relatives). Meanwhile elsewhere:

Left Centerville today to cycle the white zone on top of Billy the mountain. Centerville was (and still is right now) hidden totally in grey mist and so I was totally surprised when I suddenly broke through the mist and the sun was shining.
Looking back the direction from where I started of:

Btw: No David Lynch weather report today so far, hope he is well.

Planes into Wellington diverted as wind blows in opposing directions

Tom Hunt

15:51, January, 3rd, 2023.

Wellington is earning its windy reputation on Tuesday as it simultaneously blows from the north and south – making for a headache for plane travellers.

Metservice meteorologist John Law at 1.15pm on Tuesday said the wind at the top of Mt Kaukau in Wellington was blowing at 12 knots as a northerly, but was blowing southerly at 12 knots closer to sea level.

The effect was known as “wind shear” and he had seen on an online flight radar that some planes into Wellington Airport had been diverted away from the capital.

Harald Bernage was on a plane from Dunedin to Wellington that got diverted to Palmerston North for refuelling before heading back to Wellington for another try.

“The pilots made two attempts before diverting to Palmerston,” he said.

“They said we had a tailwind on approach that turn into headwind on short final.

Air New Zealand has confirmed flights had been cancelled or diverted due to Wellington wind conditions (File photo)
“The aircraft limitations didn't allow the pilots to touchdown safely. Everyone is still calm [and] smiley in the plane. There is just a big queue for the toilets.

“Crew has been serving water and lollies while on the ground.”

Wellington Airport’s arrivals board shows a Jetstar flight from Gold Coast had also been diverted.

An emailed statement from Air New Zealand confirmed that the wind conditions meant some flights had been cancelled or diverted. It was updating details on its website.
