Hello Friends,
Should be a nice sunny day for us, but waves remain exceedingly small. Swell at sea was 0.8 metres from 155° at 11 seconds. That means maybe waist high on the bigger sets at the best exposures, but tiny to flat everywhere else. Tide was low at 0725 and will be back to a modest 1.3 m high at 1335. As of 0750, wind was out of the NW at 5-7kts. We’re heading to a high of 19C today – which also happens to be the current ocean temp.
Swell doesn’t look like improving today, but it should be a bit bigger and more southerly tomorrow. It’ll be interesting to see what the Goat makes of the weekend prospects. He’ll drop his forecast this afternoon, so be sure to check back for your weekly dose of surf wisdom.
Have a great Thursday one and all.
