You won't need an aircraft to get airborne...

Not to turn this into a pissing contest, but not uncommon in Australia during cyclone season.

An alternate would be required ?

Not to turn this into a pissing contest, but not uncommon in Australia during cyclone season. The strongest wind gust recorded on the Australian mainland is 267 km/h. The gust was recorded during cyclone Vance at 11:50 am (WST) 22 March 1999 at Learmonth Meteorological Office, 35 km south of Exmouth. Wind gusts of 259 km/h at Mardie and 246 km/h at Onslow were measured during cyclone Trixie in February 1975. |
In 50 years never seen 200kts forecast anywhere - seen the odd typhoon around Asia.
|
Cyclone Tracy, which devastated Darwin in Christmas 1974, recorded a 217 km/hr maximum wind speed before the anemometer failed. Given the scale of the destruction it was likely much higher. |
I guess the port has been freed by now? |

We’ve got enough biggest, most poisonous, longest records. We don’t need to make up more. |

hmmm, I’ve never seen 200kt in a TAF in Oz in the last 20 + years. Yasi was estimated at “only” 300kmh. We’ve got enough biggest, most poisonous, longest records. We don’t need to make up more. |
