Hello Friends,
Grabbed a snap during a pause in the showers this morning. As you can see, we’ve got a whole lot of nothing on the surf front. Wind was out of the NE at 9-13 kts as of 0630. So it’s well on its way to the predicted 15-20 kts later. Out at sea the swell was coming from the NE at around the metre mark, but with a typical period in the 5-6 second range. Hence our flatness.
As for the outlook, well, being a Friday, we have a nice fresh forecast from his eminence, the Mighty Goat.
Go well with your Friday fine folk!
