Live AI Coastal Briefing
G'day and welcome to your Wednesday 27 May coastal weather report, I've got the latest for you on this beautiful morning. We're coming to you live from the coast, where the heavy overcast is setting the tone for the day, with a temperature already at 14C. The humidity is sitting at 97%, making it feel quite damp and misty out there.
The ocean is looking pretty wild today, with wave heights reaching 1.94m, which is definitely overhead and powerful, so it's really only suitable for experienced surfers. The water temperature is a cool 16.1C, so if you're planning on getting in the water, a 3/2 full wetsuit is recommended to keep you warm. We've got high tide coming up at 07:31 am, with a height of 3.4m, and low tide later at 01:08 pm, dropping down to -3.2m.
If you're planning on hitting the beach or the trails today, you'll want to be aware of the strong winds blowing at 21 km/h from the SSE, with some pretty hefty gusts up to 40 km/h. For surfers, the powerful reef break is going to be a challenge, but for experienced riders, it's going to be a real thrill. Runners, cyclists, and paddleboarders will need to be careful with the wind, but the cool temperature might make for a pretty pleasant outing, and for anglers, the rough conditions might make for some exciting fishing.
As we head into the afternoon, it's looking like the heavy overcast will stick around, but with no chance of rain, so you can still plan on getting out and enjoying the coast. With low UV levels, you won't need to worry too much about sun protection, but do keep an eye on the wind and the waves if you're planning on getting in the water. Thanks for tuning in to your coastal weather report, stay safe and have a great day out there.
