Hello Friends,
Sunny skies at last and as foretold, we still have swell this morning. The point looks to be in the head plus range on sets and it’s a similar size up the beach. Surface conditions were clean and wind was lightly offshore. The MHL buoy was detecting 1.7 metres of 9.5 sec SSE (162°) as of 0600. The good news is that it should stick around at about that intensity all day. Tide is on the way to a 0.5 low at 0950. It’ll be back to a 1.6m high at 1615.
I sure hope the more optimistic models have it right about the front half of next week just quietly…
Have a great Friday one and get out there if you can!
