Sparkling start to Monday
Hello Friends,
A beautiful start to Monday with partly cloudy but mostly sunny skies and a light SW wind still blowing at 0900. It’s due to shift to E-SE later. A 1.78 m high tide at 0830 meant that everywhere getting the little 1.3 metre, 8 sec, SE-E swell was also looking full. By the time it’s back to low at 1510, the wind’ll be doing its thing.
As for the outlook, well, nothing much has changed on this morning’s swell models. It’s still looking surf will be bumping in the knee to waist-plus range on sets at the magnets zone for the next week.
Enjoy your Monday everyone!
