Saturday
Weather
It’s a day of almost imperceptibly slight improvements. We will still have the moderate WSW’ly breeze all day, but we should nudge up to a max of 12-13°C (which is a couple of degrees milder than Friday). As for the weather, the skies will stay cloudy but this time there should be much less of that patchy drizzle.
Surf and the Water
Friday’s dribbly 2-3 foot surf should be replaced by a developing 4-5 foot swell. It’s going to be a little bit lumpy and choppy but still plenty of fun. High water will be just 7.6m at 10:30am and low water will be 3.1m at 5:10pm.
Sunday
Weather
The wind will be a light W’ly on this day and the temperature will peak at 13°C again, so it should be comfortable enough. However, it doesn’t look as though we are going to lose any of that cloud. In fact it’s probably going to thicken up and produce the odd spot of light rain.
Surf and the Water
Although the wind direction isn’t great, it should be light enough to keep the 4-5 feet surf pretty clean. The tidal movements continuing to shrink, with a high of only 7m at 11:40am.
Monday and Tuesday
Weather
Two more days with max temps of 13°C, but this time with hazy sunshine and a moderate SW’ly breeze on Monday, picking up to a fresh S’ly on Tuesday. Best of all, it looks as though we should stay nice and dry.
Surf and the Water
Clean surf, fluctuating in size between about 2 and 5 feet. Good swimming conditions on all coasts (except for the south I’m afraid). The tidal range absolutely tiny, basically meaning that all times of day will be good for a swim or a surf.
The Rest of Next Week
Weather
Typically, it gets very uncertain at the latter end of next week, but forecast models are telling a consistent story as far as Wednesday.... A low-pressure system will move from the mid-Atlantic into the Bay of Biscay on Wednesday and send some soggy weather in our direction on a mild and murky S’ly airflow. From Thursday onward, I’m confident that the temperature will stay on the high side of the November average. However, it’s 50/50 whether this will be due to the development of a dry and sunny high pressure system, or from further Atlantic lows bringing more wet and windy conditions. Best just keep an eye on the updates.
Surf and the Water
Although the weather detail is proving tough to pin down, the surf looks guaranteed to be good. This is due primarily to a constant supply of 3-6 foot waves, and also due to the wind being either very light or being a fairly stiff offshore (S’ly). The tides will be medium in size, with lows in the mornings and highs in the afternoons.
