October has been pretty good to SA surfers so far. West-facing coasts have had a great run over the last two weeks, but even the South Coast has faired unseasonably well given the usual endless run of sou-easters this time of year is infamous for. The next week is a bit of mixed bag, and the weekend looks pretty sketchy, to be honest.
The wind will be light from the East early on Friday, and the Mid Coast will be clean- but surf will only be around 1′. The East wind will add lumps on the South Coast but surf should be around 3′ at Middleton – building after lunch. As a bonus, the wind looks like it will swing to the NW which could mean building swell and improving conditions. it may *not* happen, of course… but it’s probably your last chance for clean conditions down south for a few days.
Metnerds will notice we may well have another cut-off Low forming over the weekend, and if that happens expect similar weather and surf to the first week of October. Southerly winds will be 15 – 20 knots all day on Saturday, and the South Coast will be a mess. Middleton should be around 3′. The Mid Coast will still probably only have waves around 1′.
Sunday is not looking a whole lot better, with SE winds around 7 knots picking up after lunch. The Mid Coast will probably only have surf around 0.5′, and conditions will be lumpy down South with Middleton in the 2 – 3′ range.
The wind will be light from the East for the start of the week, around 7 knots early picking up to 15 knots after lunch. Surf will be messy and around 2- 3′ at Middleton, and the Mid will only be around 0.5′.
The wind will be light from the East on Monday morning, tending SSE at 15 knots after lunch. The Mid Coast might lift to around 1′ and it’ll be clean early. Middleton will have surf around 3′, probably lumpy/glassy on the morning becoming messy after lunch as the onshore wind picks up.
Tuesday should have light winds all day, tending Easterly early and becoming variable after lunch. Tuesday / Wednesday are probably a good little window for Yorkes. A new WSW swell will lift wave heights on the Mid Coast from 1′ in the morning to more than 1′ after lunch, and it should be clean all day. The swell will be bigger down South as well, with surf around 4′ building after lunch. The wind will be light E-NE on Wednesday, and the Mid Coast might produce some clean 1 – 2′ waves after lunch. The swell direction won’t be as good for the Sout Coast, and Middleton will probably only manage surf around 2′.
The swell should be bigger on Thursday with 2′ waves on the Mid Coast, and 4′ surf at Middleton. Winds look light-moderate E- NE, but the error bars on that prediction are pretty large. In any case, it does look like favourable winds and good swell direction for west-facing coasts around Thursday.
