Hello Friends,
Just a quick note for now to say that there are waist plus sets to be had amongst the choppy greyness of Friday morning. Wind is south 10-20 kts, swell is mainly south (but there’s NE in it too). The south component is around 2 metres at 7 seconds though.
Next tide is a low at 1110.
Have a great Friday everyone!

Weather Situation
A cold front will continue to move along the northern parts of the coast today, reaching the north coast by evening. Fresh to strong north to northeasterly winds are expected ahead of this front, with winds changing to a southerly direction behind and strengthening. Southerly winds moderate and then tend southeasterly into the weekend as a high pressure system, currently located over the Bight, moves east and becomes the dominant weather feature moving over the Tasman Sea into the new week.
