    @Bones you're right, we make it up.

    also, I'll just leave this here. around 200 days a year of gale force winds in Kelburn.

    Days with wind gusts greater than gale force at Kelburn, Wellington, New Zealand - Figure.NZ

    @nzzp holy schmokes, I can just imagine the surprise at finding a breeze at the top of an exposed hill. That would never do.

    you're right.

    Even NIWA are in on it. How high does this conspiracy go?

    You should stop hanging out at the top of Kelburn hill, there's nothing there.

    @Kruse also, consider whether you fear earthquakes or volcanoes more 🙂

    Maybe I'm getting confused. There is Kelburn that is the tip of a hill, but is there also a "Kelburn Hill" which is higher?

    I've lived at Weir House (top of the cable car), Upland Rd (past the uni, not as far as the shops), and 2 other local digs I can't remember the address of. One past the shops then into the dark, mould gully, the other right next to uni

    @voodoo I'm talking shit. I'm sure there must be a "top of the hill" in Kelburn though, but no idea where the WS is.

    Classic though, I lived on the corner of Upland and St Michaels.

    I'd say Auckland for international events, but that might be a while...

    Unless Covid-19 outbreaks are considered international events?

    @R-L I'm surprised it took a Brit so long to find a thread discussing the weather.
