While the swell was over 2 feet full and slow when Rip Curl Pro’s holding period began today, it’s somewhat baffling that WSL didn’t pull the trigger and immediately go through the first (disposable) round. The future doesn’t look good, so sometimes it’s better to make the most of what little is available. Next week looks to remain generally average, but there may be a couple of chances to be a rough, windy weekend with mid-period south-southwest swells. The last days are looking more promising as mentioned in the initial forecast.
Rip Curl Pro Bells Beach Forecast Update
Today’s slow swell will continue to subside tomorrow due to an inland, south-southeast flow, making it another Sabbath. A fun-sized mid-term wave that will rise to 3 feet during the day, plus the possibility of a larger rare, make Thursday a fascinating day. This will be caused by a front that will be well positioned in the South Victoria swell window today, and the southerly wind direction will help with consistency and shape. Additionally, wind conditions are improving, with a moderate offshore northerly breeze moving to the northeast throughout the morning against light offshore breezes. We can all expect fun waves in Rincón during the morning and Winki all day with light winds.
We could expect a rest day on Friday as the swell drops to less than 2 feet (+) and cooler northerly winds develop before a shift to the southwest in the afternoon. The weekend will see the development of a strong south-westerly wind as a polar front mixes with an easterly moving mid-latitude low. We will see a significant and localized S/SW swell increase in the mid-term on Saturday, culminating Sunday afternoon at 4-5ft+ but choppy and harsh conditions thanks to the southwesterly wind. The wind speed will be slightly below the force of the gale.
On Monday, another probable sunset day, the winds will ease but remain onshore off the south-southwest. Tuesday will bring slightly cleaner conditions and relieving 2-3 foot swells. Wednesday appears to be clear, but surf activity will be at a low ebb and rough bottom swells are expected to hold 2 to sometimes 3 foot sets. A strong polar low forming this weekend in the Heard Island region will cause a larger storm surge to hit the state as we approach the last two days of the waiting period. Hurricane force winds should develop in our western swell window, southwest of Western Australia, early next week, while the strongest global forecast models are still at odds with the initial strength of the low in our swell window. distant.
