Not too surfable looking this morning

Hello Friends,

Heavy cloud around when I grabbed the pics this morning, but as I write this it already seems to be lifting. However, whether monochromatic or colourful, the lack of surf situation is what it is. There seemed to be a couple of people in the water just north of Kiddies, but as you can see, there’s no real line and surface conditions were already textured by the light SW breeze. The 0500 MHL data showed a touch over a metre of 6-sec chop from the SE. I’ll be on my bike for today’s exercise.

The Goat should be along later with thoughts about our prospects, I’m hoping he’ll spot something of interest that I’ve missed in this morning’s modelling.

Have a top old day everyone and check back this afternoon for week ahead forecast.

Hopefuls at Kiddies
Nothing for you at the point 0720
South end of No Mans looks good for boating
