Live AI Coastal Briefing

Good morning and welcome to our coastal weather report for Wednesday, 27 May. We're in for a bit of a wild ride today with a 90% chance of rain and some pretty intense conditions out there. The temperature is currently sitting at 20C, with a heavy overcast and 82% humidity, so it's feeling pretty damp and gloomy.



Out in the ocean, the wave height is a significant 2.62m, which is extremely large and dangerous, so we're advising everyone to stay out of the water today. The water temperature is a warm 22.0C, but that's not much comfort when the waves are this big. We've got high tide coming up at 08:00 am, with a height of 1.1m, and low tide later at 05:15 pm, with a height of -0.5m.



For all you sports and fitness enthusiasts out there, today's not looking like the best day to get out and about. Surfers, even experienced ones, should think twice before heading out, as the waves are just too big and powerful. Runners and cyclists might want to consider alternative routes or postponing their plans, and anglers should be careful out on the water. Paddleboarders should definitely stay on dry land today, as the conditions are just too hazardous.



As we head into the afternoon, we can expect the Fremantle Doctor to kick in, bringing some strong sea breezes and potentially making the conditions even more unpredictable. With the rain and wind, it's not going to be the most pleasant day, but we'll get through it. So, stay safe, stay dry, and we'll catch you back here tomorrow with another update on the coastal weather.
