Hello Friends,
Light offshores and partly cloudy skies to kick off on Sunday, but sadly, no swell to speak of. The MHL buoy is showing about a metre of SE wind swell with an average period of 7 seconds.
Outlook is for the energy levels to increase as the southerly hits later Monday. Unfortunately the forecast hasn’t changed much, so although we can expect the swell to swing SE on Tuesday and come up into the solidly surfable range, the wind is going to be in on top of it from the SE for most of the day. What currently looks a possibility is Wednesday morning when a combo of light onshores and gradually fading ESE swell could deliver us some fun.
Have yourself a great Sunday!
Weather Situation
A weak high pressure ridge over the western Tasman Sea is weakening further and a low pressure trough is deepening off New South Wales far north coast. During Sunday the trough will extend along central and south coasts and a low may develop within it. The trough is expected to move east and weaken later on Monday as a high pressure system east of Tasmania strengthens a ridge to the north coast.
