I wouldn’t hold my breath for a surf tomorrow, with a very inconsistent long-range W/SW groundswell that was generated over the weekend not due to really arrive until Wednesday and this may offer 1-2ft sets at Clifton.

Some slightly better but weak W/SW swell may kick the surf more towards 2ft through the afternoon, generated by a weak front passing under us through the day. This will see winds swinging NW to W through the day.

An even better W/SW swell is due on Thursday as a better aligned and slightly stronger fetch of W/SW gales develop and stall south-west of us tomorrow evening.

2ft to likely 3ft of W/SW swell is due Thursday morning, easing through the day and back from 1-2ft Friday with good winds all day both days.

The weekend isn't looking too flash hot with tiny leftovers and besides a very long-range and inconsistent W/SW groundswell for Monday morning there's nothing of note until mid-next week.
