Well I think 17.9C at 11.00pm in a very strong wind on October 10th
constitutes hot! Very reminiscent of a late night barbecue in Sydney when
the wind turned and blew from inland. Just add 10 deg C. Also not unlike the
night of the Oct 87 "hurricane". It seems to be pretty much a straight
southerly.
Whilst I've seen this before in Autumn/Winter I'm not sure that the skies
were as clear and completely cloudless as now.
