hey guys you heard about the wind that hit the harbour bridge? was it a waterspout or just a squall. the rain was heavy at that time too.

Just strong winds I’d say, no water spouts.

It happens, sometimes there’s a glitch in the data coming from GFS. It should resolve in the next run.
Yes a few storm on the West Coast indeed, good stuff.
