Additional Information:

3 Day Weather Forecast issured by the Meteorological Office at 050730GMT Mar. An area of High Pressure extends eastwards across the Gt Australian Bight & Tasmania at present. This is forecast to drift eastwards to be centred just SE of NZ's South Island in 48 hours time, allowing an active cold front to move across the route during Friday. However, pressure is expected to rebuild to the South of Australia from the West after the passage of this front. Present wind in the area of the fleet is E to SE 5 - 10 knots.
