Hi Observer,

According to the Seabreeze.com.au Website - this link http://www.seabreeze.com.au/graphs/wa.asp

It looks as though the winds will be around moderate around Friday arvo, then drop to light winds by Sat Night. Sunday afternoon it should peak at around 12 knots (not much at all)...

Hope this helps.

Catastrophic is FDI of 100+.

Interestingly, Victoria (already) has dropped Catastrophic and is using the phrase "Code Red" only now, as Catastrophic scares the tourists... !
