Hello Friends,
It was drizzling steadily as Friday got started along the beaches. Wind has been light and variable since around 0300, and as of 0500 the MHL buoy was detecting 1.5 metres of 7-second bump from the south.
Below, a few snaps from around 0900-0930…
Weather Situation
A weak low off the New South Wales coast is bringing southerly winds to central and southern waters, while a high pressure system over the Tasman Sea directs northeasterly winds over northern waters. The low will gradually decay early this morning as a new high strengthens over the Tasman Sea, restoring northeasterly winds throughout today. The next trough and southerly change looks set to reach the southern coast later Sunday, then to continue north on Monday.
