Here is a false colour image of Cat3 cyclone Debbi, 27th/2100z, close to
Bowen on the Queensland coast. I have seen gusts of 138 mph at nearby
Hamilton Island, mean speed 112 mph in the past hour (22z to 23Z).

The sequence of observations for Hamilton Island as cyclone Debbi passed
close by can be seen at:

http://www.bom.gov.au/products/IDQ60...01.94368.shtml

They make interesting reading, with a peak gust of 163 mph at 1025 local
(EST).
The automatic station seems to have withstood the onslaught, apart from the
temperature sensor packing up.
Note, the page updates regularly, so the sequence will only be available for
a couple of days.
