Very tiny but a beautiful morning
Hello Friends,
Yet another gorgeous winter morning along the beaches. It’s sunny, the wind is coming lightly from the west but the SE swell is less than a metre at sea with a period of 8 seconds, so waves are struggling to make the waist-high mark on the very occasional bomb sets. If you’re keen, take the tiny wave option from your quiver and you might jag the odd knee-high runner. Mostly though, you’ll be hanging around, waiting.
The puniness looks set to last until around Thursday when at least some of the modelling is showing a weak and brief metre or so south pulse. Maybe. After that, it currently looks like more micro conditions.
Go well and enjoy the day!
