Victoria University Antarctic Research Expedition Science and Logistics Reports 1982-83: VUWAE 27

Weather:

Excellent weather conditions were experienced early in the season, both in the Miers Valley and during the first ten days at Shapeless Mountain. However, out of the last 17 days on Shapeless Mountain we had suitable working weather on only four (4) days. The major factor was the wind which blew consistently at 20-30 knots with gusts to over 70 knots, coupled with temperatures page 51 of around −20°C. A summary of our weather observations is presented in Appendix III.
