Toxic Plumes

Where will it be today?

Grab the latest wind forecast from the Bureau of Meteorology here, and once you find out what the wind is going to be you can get a pretty good idea of where the plume will be: (the toxic plume moves up and down the coastline depending on which way the wind is blowing)

Here is an example of Gunnamatta’s toxic plume movement:

• Southerly - at the shoreline at Gunnamatta and St Andrews
• South-Easterly - St Andrews, Rye
• Easterly - St Andrews , Rye and further east
• North Easterly - St Andrews
• Northerly - out to sea (but not too far out, only 300m)
• North Westerly - Gunnamatta, Fingal, Cape Schanck
• Westerly - Gunnamatta, Fingal, Cape Schanck
• South Westerly- Gunnamatta, Fingal and Cape Schanck
