Hello Friends,
Sunny skies and SW wind for Tuesday morning. Out at sea the SSE swell was around a metre at 9-10 seconds apart, but the wind is holding it off our beaches. And, from the look of the modelling, it’ll keep doing so throughout the day. So super clean, but almost perfectly flat.
It looks like we have another couple days of tiny conditions and then from around Friday swell prospects improve but the wind regime kicks into onshore mode – argh.
Patience. The great days always return!
Weather Situation
Gusty south to southwesterly winds will extend throughout today as the trough in the north moves offshore.
