Southwest Australia Forecast
Hugh McDowell •Today
Solid surf as new SSW swell fills in. Open breaks cleaning up as winds trend E / SE.
Open coast head to OH and building into the 2x OH range as new SSW swell fills in - bigger later in the day. Sheltered southern corners more manageable and significantly smaller with the swell direction - more like head high and below in the morning, then building a bit.
Cleaning up as winds have gone light E to SE and stay that way all day. Maybe still a bit of wobble and not perfect at exposures though.
