Comments
The term you can run but you can't hide has a whole new meaning today as the low system enveloped Nuyina about 8pm last night. The strong winds and snow storms of yesterday turned into gale force blizzard last night.
Conditions have eased today to a passive 40knots and the lookouts can even see past the foremast. Nuyina continues to make way for Davis and the promise of better weather and the beginning of operations.
Regards, Chris & Andrew
