Hello Friends,
As the showers lifted at around 0900, less than a metre of 6-second east bump was trickling in and for all intents and purposes it’s flat. Tide’s low at 0930 and will be high again at 1540. Wind was north 15-20 kts and is set to go SW later.
As the Goat warned on Thursday, we shouldn’t expect much in the way of wave energy for the coming week. Sigh.
Have yourself a great Sunday anyway!
Weather Situation
A strong high pressure system over the Tasman Sea is slowly moving east, maintaining a ridge across northeast New South Wales and directing northeast to northwesterly winds over the coastal waters. A fast-moving cold front will bring a south to southwesterly change to the south coast from this afternoon, extending to northern parts during Monday. Behind the front, a ridge will strengthen over New South Wales during Monday, with winds swinging back to northeasterly. A west to southwesterly wind change is expected late Monday or early Tuesday.
