Rottnest Channel Swim abandoned mid-race due to extreme weather

For the first time in its 34-year history, Perth's Rottnest Channel Swim has been abandoned mid race.
Extreme weather disrupted the race.
Nearly 2,000 swimmers were forced out of the water just kilometres from the finish line.
The rough conditions at the Rottnest Swim event made it difficult for emergency services to rescue swimmers.
One woman was airlifted to the Royal Perth Hospital and another man taken to Fremantle for treatment.

When a surfing contest is abandoned due to lack of surf, is that extreme conditions as well ?

It's called rough waters skynews but ur propaganda is extraordinary

[@MrBrowne86]

The titles are done this way so when a search is done they can say say there has been an increase in “extreme weather” events and perpetuate the propaganda even more.

IF THE WEATHER HAD AS MUCH CONTROL OVER PEOPLE AS SKY NEWS CHANNEL HAS...WE WOULD BE DOOMED IN AN INSTANT

Was the water deemed to be too wet?

[@captainchokdee1039]

It’s called BAD WEATHER. Don’t be soooooooooo “Extreme”.

[@anderander5662]

I agree, in the USA every tornado is unprecedented and every hurricane is the worst ever

[@weekendwithbevoblog2171]

I'd say bad weather. Extreme is a bit of fear mongering.

[@anderander5662]

They will discontinue it soon enough

What are you going to do when the greenland channel collapses due to lack of salinity?

[@kevinkelly2162]

Probably blame Biden.
