Hello Friends,
Sunny to start and a warm day ahead says the Bureau. There was a tiny south line trickling in for the morning shift. It was just barely big enough to create the odd calf to knee high set at the point and along the beach it looked to be maybe a touch bigger – although there weren’t any takers that I could see. Tide was low at 0625 and is heading back to the high a little before 1300.
Wind should stay light from the NW.
The Bureau’s modelling shows the swell energy decreasing as the day goes along.
Tomorrow should see a south change rattle through the joint in the morning and that ought to mean a bump in the swell energy, but not by much and mostly at places also exposed to the wind.
And the week ahead? Well, the oracle has spoken.
Have a great Friday!
