Hello Friends,
Gale force southerly under clearing skies and 3 metres of 8-sec SE swell meant it was a morning for only the keenest of the keen.
Weather Situation
Gale force southerly winds and hazardous surf conditions with large and powerful waves are developing along the northern half of the coast as a low off the north coast is deepening. Winds will then gradually ease during Monday and Tuesday as the low moves away to the east.
Forecast for Sunday until midnight
