Southerly Saturday
Hello Friends,
Heavy cloud and WSW wind as Saturday got started. But by 0700 it had come around to the SE. Unsurprisingly, there’s an 80% chance of a shower this morning. In fact, we had a period of downpours around 0645. There was 1.7 m of 9.5 sec easterly swell coming in – so pretty much what it’s been for the last three days. First tide of the daylight hours will be the 1.78m high at 0955.
Today’s a write-off surfwise, but maybe tomorrow morning will offer a few fun ones for the early…
Go well, stay safe!
Weather Situation
