The wind has left nice little chunks of swell. There are decent waves up and down the Bunbury coastline with a heap out a BP reef and the Bay. The wind has been light all day and is only just swinging side/onshore southerly.
Hopefully the waves will hang around for the weekend. The harbour buoy isn't dropping away to fast but these short period windswells don't always hang around long.
The weather maps seem to show us starting to get into a seven day winter cycle. Monday fine, start of a front Tuesday, bigger front Wednesday, end of a front Thursday, fining up for Friday and the weekend before starting again.
One of the best winters in my memory (and it was ages ago) had a great 7 day cycle with massive fronts every Wednesday and Thursday and great conditions on either side. Biggest caused an 11 metre swell on the Naturaliste Buoy and every week had at least one 6. We can only hope.
