29 July 2010 Australian Bureau of Meteorology Seminar

One of the Bureau of Meteorology’s Senior Meteorologists, Julie Evans, with the assistance of well known local Meteorologist Paige Butcher, conducted a really interesting and informative evening for a crowd of over 100 people from a wide sector of the community interested in Maritime issues.  Organisers were delighted with the large response which had caused registration to be closed more than a week prior to the date of the seminar.  The reason for the Seminar was  the Bureau upgrading its weather forecasting services for NSW, resulting in changes to some marine services fromSeptember 2010
