CSIRO WeatherWall

Weather station located at Aspendale (on Eastern side of Port Philip Bay) with a fancy java interface giving current wind strength and direction, as well as a range of other parameters. It can also give a history of the day so far which can be useful. It does take a little while to download however.

Not that common to get thunder and lightening. We just get dull weather and rain :-)
