Event of 23 March 2021

We are still in Canberra but I have managed to extract a couple of interesting graphs of the event from BoM data for the Mallacoota (Airfield) BoM location.  Not much needs to be said.

Firstly the rain, showing the accumulated fall (line) and fall per 30 minutes.

The second chart shows the maximum gust in each 30 minute period.  The peak, at 2330 was 85kph.  

For comparison Gabo's maximum gust was 107kph, also at 2330.  The usual (mainland) suspect for strongest gust is Wilson's Promontory only managed 93kph at 2037.
