Long lines, setty and clean

Hello Friends,

Swell’s dropped back overnight, but the average period is still around 14 seconds, so even if it’s mostly around the metre mark out as sea, south swell receptive spots were seeing sets this morning into the shoulder high range. You just had to be very patient. As of 0900 the wind was out of the WNW at 6-8 kts. It’s expected to swing southerly and then settle back to SE-NE around dusk.
Swell could fade out across the front half of the week, but with luck there will be a little something around (assuming the long period stuff persists). Good news is that right now it looks as though we could have another little south pulse in the chest high plus range late Wednesday which then sticks around into Thursday.
Go well everybody!
