⁽¹⁾ Measured from midnight to midnight.

⁽²⁾ The weather station under-reports wind speed, which is conventionally measured at a height of 10m.  Between 2022 and 12 Oct 2024 the weather station was mounted 3m above the ground. At 10m height, wind speed would be about 2 times that recorded at 3m (ref). 
Since 12 Oct 2024 the weather station has been mounted 5m above the ground.  At 10m height, wind speed would be about 1½ times that recorded at 5m.
Wind speed is the average speed measured over a ten minute period.  Gust speed is the maximum three second average speed.
