Back to tiny
Hello Friends,
Back to tiny conditions after our run of solid swell. It’s not completely flat though. At 0500 the MHL buoy was detecting 1.5 metres of 9-sec swell from the SSE. It was too small to make DY point an option, but there were still waist-plusses to be had along the beach.
Wind was west at 5-6 kts as of 0730 and tide hit the 1.74 m high at 0800.
From the look of the swell models, there should be little catchable bumps at south magnets again tomorrow, but after that prospects for a wave are looking dim until the weekend. And they’re not looking fabulous then either. While energy levels are set to come up a little, it currently seems that we’ll probably have rainy weather and onshore wind. Might have to wait until mid next week for nice weather and morning offshores with waist to chest-ish waves.
Have a top old Tuesday!
Weather Situation
Easterly winds over coastal waters are gradually turning northeast as a high over eastern New South Wales is entering the Tasman Sea and slowly drifting eastwards. Then, winds will turn south to southeasterly on Friday and persist through the weekend as a trough moves up the coast while another high drifts across Tasmania.
