Lucky seven

The Naturaliste buoy has hit seven metres despite part of the site not working. The swell is pretty widespread with Rotto being over five metres and the same size was on the TV weather forecast for Perth where it never gets over 2.5 metres.

Both Bunbury buoys are out of action so no wind or wave readings are available but the port is closed due to the weather.

Don't plan for any improvement. The official forecast has winds in the west for the next three days at around thirty knots and the swell eventually easing to 3.5 metres for a time before cranking upwards again.

There really can be too much swell !
