Hello Friends,
Around 10 kts of NW wind as Saturday kicked off under high overcast skies. Swell was under a metre from the SSE with a feeble average period of 7 seconds. First tide of the daylight hours was the low at 0715. It’ll be back to high at 1445.
There were knee to maybe possibly waist high soft little lines at magnets this morning. The better exposed to the south, the more likely you’ll get something – until that southerly arrives.
Outlook is for it to stay marginal and tiny for the next few days as the wind swings back and forth between the SE and NE. Waves look likely to be short period and ranging from ankle to maybe waist across the front half of the week.
From Weds-Thr onward there currently seems to be some hope for proper waves with some of the modelling indicating wave heights into the 2 metre range and winds lightish for the early sessions.
Have a great Saturday everyone!
