Interesting Idea Rod
Funny you should raise that, was thinking about that myself recently, would be good to look at back trends etc and combine that with fishing logs and to be able to extrapolate possible short term future weather.
I haven't been able to find anything either.
I did start a spreadsheet, capturing weather, swells, moon phases, tides etc from all the weather sites at each change point - but turned into an horendous task!

Yeh its only from a year
Yeh its only from a year back but you can still use it as a rough guide to the months ahead, yes it does come in handy.

On the BOM website you can find weather from 1975 to 2004.
Called a wind rose. I was looking for wind patterns during october at exmouth and found it on the wind rose.
