Size still but somewhat lumpy
Hello Friends,
Waves again this morning and conditions are definitely smaller and more approachable than yesterday. Sets were frequent and into the head and a bit range. Close to 20 people were in the water at the point, but the beach looked kinda rippy and I didn’t see anyone chasing waves. Skies were mostly clear and wind was coming from the west at 9-11 kts. Tide was coming in to 1.34 high at 0955. Swell at sea was 2.1 metres at 11 seconds from the ENE (116°). We should see a high of 17C. Water’s still on 19C.
Swell is expected to continue its steady decrease today as it gradually fades to flat at the end of the work week (or so say the models).
Go well, and if you’re getting out and about, take the mask and take care!
