Sunday kicked off with sunny skies, light WNW wind and a fading 1.3 metre, 10 second dead south swell. Tide was filling into the moderate 1.3 m high at 1110. Given the benign conditions, it didn’t look overly crowded for a weekend morning with waves. Quality was ok, but not exceptional and the waits between sets were on the longish side. So take that Aloha attitude if you’re going for a paddle, and it’ll all be good.
We should have sunny weather tomorrow and Tuesday morning, but the models show the wave energy dropping away significantly. The weather looks like going back to rainy from Tuesday evening with a brief, but windblown south pulse arriving on Wednesday. The models show the pulse fading gradually, with Thursday looking to be affected by southerly wind but Friday, maybe, possibly seeing lighter wind and waist-ish high waves at SE exposures. Sadly it seems that the rainy conditions won’t abate until next week.
So enjoy your Sunday everyone and stay happy!
Weather Situation
A high pressure system centred over the Tasman sea is maintaining a ridge to the northern coast as winds are tending northerly in most areas. A cold front and associated trough will bring a fresh to strong southerly change to the southern coast late Monday, extending to central and northern areas during Tuesday. Behind this, a new high is expected to strengthen south of the Bight mid-week then move slowly east, maintaining south to southeasterly winds over coastal waters for a number of days.
