Hello Friends,
According to the MHL buoy at 0930, the main energy was coming to us from the south. It was around the metre mark with an average period of 11 seconds. That means there are little waves to be had at the south magnets. I reckon the best you’re likely to see will be waist to chest.
Should stay SW today and not get too windy. Oh, and it’ll be sunny too. Not a bad sort of day to wander down to the beach with a relaxed attitude and something floaty from the quiver.
Swell should come up for tomorrow and the morning could potentially be as good as it gets for the next week or so – at least. I’m hoping for shoulder plus at south magnets.
Have a top old Sunday!

Weather Situation
A high pressure system is expected to further strengthen over central Australia extending a broad ridge to NSW coast with associated southwesterly airstream over coastal waters. The high is expected to move to the southeast early next week directing a more southerly flow. Onshore winds are likely to develop by midweek as the high enters the Tasman Sea.
