Stronger S windswell. Sideshore winds much of the day but OK windows for the floatier boards.
Midday: Still looking at thigh-waist+ high surf at lunch, but moderate SW winds mean conditions are fairly sideshore where the surf is biggest, in the southern part of the region. Still worth considering trying to find something, but I'd have my expectations pretty low.
Afternoon Outlook: Winds ease and trend a bit more WSW, for slightly improved conditions where the surf is biggest in the Avon-Buxton zone. Spots further north stay pretty small through the day. Worth watching.
