Title

Weather Fax cyclone warning

Description

This is a weather fax received on board Peer Gynt II using a laptop linked to our ICOM M700 Pro using Xaxero software and demodulator . It is a warnings summary issued by Darwin warning of cyclone "Upia" that had developed whilst we were on the east coast of Australia. We moved to a mangrove hurricane hole as a precaution as the cyclone was still developing and moving south.

Jon, a professional photographer, says - "I'm usually a landlubber - I spend most of my time photographing landscapes and outdoor pursuits such as walking, climbing and mountain biking - but my trip with Rod and Bridget from Cairns to Gove was an unforgettable experience".
