Surf Report
Scarborough and Cayton Bay Surf Forecast UPDATED: 17/05/2013

Morning folks, light winds through the night have pushed the forecast back by half a day, this mornings light onshore winds have since increased and we should see the wind swell build through the afternoon into this evening with 2-3ft likely later. Plenty of surf for the weekend, mostly onshore with varying degrees of wind strength through Saturday (god only knows how MSW have it down as offshore) with much lighter and changeable winds forecast Sunday but with a dropping swell...Full 5 day forecast - 

 

 

Thursday 16th May
WAVE QUALITY

 Nice little Northerly peaks this morning, with some solid 2ft sets every 15 minutes or so, the dropping tide has turned this in to more of a 1-2ft weaker wave but its still offshore and clean as of 10:00am. Winds forecast to turn onshore later this afternoon but very light at present.

Friday 17th May
WAVE QUALITY

We're expecting a wind driven Northerly swell to be building through the day, moderate winds through the morning getting stronger after midday. Expect around 1-2ft earlier on picking up to a good 2-3ft after midday and possibly even up to 4ft+ last light if the winds blow as forecast.

Saturday 18th May
WAVE QUALITY

We will see lighter winds today, but still a moderate onshore wind swell with good fetch and more of an Easterly aspect. Again still looking bigger on the charts compared to the MSW forecast. The swell peaks through the late afternoon with the biggest surf hitting slightly further North although I still think we will cop some of it's extra size. Expect a solid 2-3ft earlier on building through the morning to at least 3-4ft with the possibility of bigger 4-5ft surf through the evening if the bulk of swell moves further down the coast.

 

By last light the winds look to calm down and at some point ( possibly by the time it's pitch black) it looks to swing offshore, hopefully light enough even if the directions not perfect to have a decent evening session...

WAVE QUALITY

A hard call sizewise today but certainly still a bit  of swell through the morning gradually dropping through the day. Most likely 2ft through the morning and quite possibly bigger on set, however this will soon turn to 1-2ft with the tide pulling back...

 

The winds are looking light but changable throughout...

Monday 20th May
WAVE QUALITY

Another swell and wind change overnight will see a longrange but relatively light Northerly wind swell moving in. Starting life above Shetland there will be some decent period slightly marred by the onshore wind backing the swell. Lighter winds through the first half of the day with a couple of foot likely, stronger winds through the afternoon will see this increase up to 2-3ft. On the opposite side of the pond a small tight low will also be producing a similar size ENE swell so expect peaky conditions and a few funky waves through the high tide at Bunkers...

 

Bigger Tuesday with a steady more solid Northerly, still backed with light to moderate cross shore winds and around 3-4ft of swell by the early afternoon. It might not be perfect but get on it regardless...Summer Flatness is just around the corner!
