Watsons Bay buffeted by wild winter winds

Ye old weather god is letting the local residents know that winter is still with us.Winter winds from the Snowy Mountains have reduced our average maximum temperature 9 degrees celcius,from a balmy 23 degrees Tuesday to 13.7 maximun to day.
The beach at Watsons Bay is showing the evidence with cruisers ripped from their moorings and driven onto the beach,as shown in the photo.



The local park normall inhabited by visitors playing friendly cricket or kicking the ball have vanished preferring to shelter indoors,rather than cope winds gusting at 65km per hour,its enough to drive a sailor to drink.
 
Some tree damage is evident with falling limbs.Normall the waters in the bay are calm and placid but there has been a small surf beating in from the west. This cannot last,soon it will all change.Give me my crystal ball so I can let viewers know what the future holds.
