Bit of a pre-front northerly wave for those who were quick this afternoon. I saw a guy take a clean head height drop on what looked like the best peak in front of the surf club.
The sea and swell have both swung north west and are climbing rapidly. The sea is 1.12 and the swell 0.73. The swell period has dropped four seconds since midday and is sitting on 10.
There are some weird blobs on the Stormsurf wave models for the next week or so. It has a 30 foot swell hitting Marges in 72 hours with Perth getting 18 - 20. Forty seven feet of swell is passing the south coast. There are then two follow up 15 to 20 foot swells in the following few days
The models can be a bit funky and this is super unusual
WEATHER SITUATION A cold front moving over the area during Tuesday is likely to cause WIDESPREAD DAMAGING WINDS to 100 kilometres per hour that could result in DAMAGE TO HOMES AND PROPERTY. In isolated areas DANGEROUS GUSTS in excess of 125 kilometres per hour could cause SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION TO HOMES AND PROPERTY. DAMAGING winds are likely to develop about the Capes early on Tuesday morning and extend to remaining parts later in the morning. Thunderstorms are also possible. Higher than normal tides may result in flooding of low-lying coastal areas in the Geographe Bay area, including Busselton and Dunsborough, on Tuesday morning. This is typical weather for this time of year.
