Hello Friends,
One more day of sunny skies and clean winter lines.
Wind was light and from the west. It should pretty much stay that way too.
Wave faces on bomb sets at the bigger spots were still occasionally into the overhead range, but mostly it was in the shoulder to head high range on sets.
Swell is 1.5 m at 13 seconds from the SE (148°) and next tide is a low at 1240. Water’s 19C
Weather switches to rainy for tomorrow and Saturday. Keen to see what the Goat thinks about the surf prospects for the rest of the week!
Go well and take the mask if you’re running essential errands.
