Avalon 7am Avalon 7am No. 3551

Tuesday, August 30, 2005

Yesterday’s gusty North easterlies kicked up some wind swell. It’s only managing 2-3 foot at easterly exposed beaches though… Interval between waves is short, creating really weak conditions suitable for the power groms – and not much else (wind chop). Winds are still northerly this morning and will howl north east later on today. Sensational maximum temperature of 23 degrees today…how good.

Surf forecast for this week is predominantly E/NE swells…not much grunt nor size…should be a little bigger this arvo.

Looking at the swell charts…there is a lot of activity on the other side of Australia. Margaret River is scoring solid 10-12 foot this week….

The good news is it looks like swell is going to be heading up to Indonesia for the next Aquabumps tour which starts this weekend (1-15 Sept). Thanks to Telstra (especially Marc Tan, Simon Longes and Reiny Gajewski), Aquabumps reports will be broadcasted via Satellite connection from a 120 foot schooner, Bintang, drifting 100 Km’s off the coast of Sumatra.

Have a great day…Later, *Uge
