Just about flat
Hello Friends,
Stinkin’ hot and it’s just about flat. Not good for surfers, but a relief for busy lifesavers looking after all the folk cooling off along our beaches.
Waves are extremely weak and not much above knee height. They might inch up a little once the tide drops from the swampy 2 metre high tide this morning. But I’m really not expecting any real improvement until maybe tomorrow morning. The most optimistic predictions show potential waist high bumps for the morning session thanks to a mix of NE and building south energy.
Beyond that… not looking like the most exciting week surfwise…
Stay cool!
