Micro conditions this morning


Hello Friends,

It looks as though the micro conditions are going to last another three or four days. The MHL buoy reports less than a metre of short period ENE windswell. So I wouldn’t be too hopeful of finding a wave this morning.

The forecast models have been swinging about over the last few days. This morning’s run doesn’t look quite as flash as yestereday’s, but the broad trend of a building S-SE windswell from around Thursday. With luck it’ll get into the rideable range by Thursday at south swell spots. As things presently look, it doesn’t seem likely that we’ll see anything too dramatic. However, one of the interpretations of the data is calling for energy levels to move from rideable to interesting late Sunday. That’s pretty far out there, so I wouldn’t be blocking out a spot in the schedule for Monday just yet…

Pics up in a bit when there’s enough light…
