Listening in to the tower web feed, plenty of windsheer overshoot warnings on 16R variable from 500 to 300ft, mainly affecting 73x. Also just heard Moderate windsheer at 600ft on 16L approach

I was at the airport this arvo, hoping for a go around or something interesting with all the windshear and downwind.

A Qantas A333 and Malaysian 744 got all the way to the end of 34L, where there was a direct tailwind, so they taxiied back along the runway and all the way to 16R. That would sorta be annoying
