Hi forecasters,
I am heading down to Wilson's Prom this Fri 6th Sep and wondering whether I should be taking a board. I know Tidal River gets waves but was hoping someone could do a forecast of what to expect.
Thanks
Arnie

Looks a little average arnie. Plenty of swell but winds will be gusty onshore from the west. Our model (nearest data point Cape Liptrap) has 4ft surf Friday morning building to 6ft+ after lunch and holding at this size all day Saturday. Sunday looks great at this stage though with solid but slowly easing surf and light northerly winds tending NE. Model data might shift around re: local winds but swell seems a certainty.
