New wind gust record set as more flights cancelled between Brisbane and Sydney
A new wind gust record has been set at Brisbane Airport as weather conditions in New South Wales continue to cause flight cancellations. Bureau of Meterology senior forecaster Felim Hanniffy said wind gusts of up to 81 kilometres per hour were recorded last night — the strongest for that site for the month of July since records began 26 years ago. Mr Hanniffy said this was equal to the highest gusts recorded at the airport during Ex-Tropical Cyclone Alfred in March. This morning at least nine flights between Brisbane and Sydney were cancelled due to wind conditions in New South Wales. Peter Doherty from Brisbane Airport said the situation across the border was easing just in time for school holidays. "Which is good news because we know there are lots of people from New South Wales eager to come to Queensland," he said. "Conditions for flying are actually pretty good here in Brisbane, there is some wind around but it is not an issue for aircraft. Mr Hanniffy said wind speeds reached between 60 and 80kph across the south-east on Wednesday and are expected to ease today. "It shouldn't be as windy as we saw yesterday, but still gusts of 50 to 60kph around from late this morning and into the afternoon," he said. Mr Hanniffy said temperatures over the weekend are forecast to reach 23 degrees Celsius, with the chance of showers late on Sunday. "We lose the westerlies before they return again early next week, but don't look as strong as what we experienced yesterday," he said.
