Saturday
Weather
Often cloudy, but with some sunny intervals and the odd brief (very brief) shower. All rather bland really, with a moderate force 4 WNW’ly wind keeping temperatures at 15-17°C by day and 12-14°C. To feel a little more warm and comfortable, stick to either Town or Fermain, or possibly branch out to Moulin Huet, Saints Bay or Petit Port.
Surf and the Water
Messy 3-4 foot surf on the west coast, but probably enough wind for a decent enough kite session. The slim chance of some clean and rideable bodysurf waves at Petit Bot. Good swimming conditions at Fermain. Low water will be around 1:30pm. High water at 7:20pm (9.5m and V splashy on the west coast).
Sunday
Weather
A mild SW’ly breeze will bring cloudy skies, but that cloud will be mostly quite thin enough to be bright at times, with the temperature climbing to around 17-18°C. There will only be a light showers, mainly in the afternoon, but the more persistent rain and drizzle will hold off until Monday. Overnight it will become increasingly windy, pulling in further warm air and keeping the temperature around 16°C despite it being dark.
Surf and the Water
increasingly clean 2-4 foot surf on the west coast. That’s some pretty decent swimming conditions both there and on the north coast too. High water will be 9.5m 7:40am and at 8pm. Low water will be at 2pm.
Monday
Weather
Persistent rain and drizzle, with mist patches and some thicker fog on the hills (so there is the possibility of some flight disruption). The wind will be a force 4-5 S’ly, so it will maintain the feed of relatively warm air, despite the rather rotten weather. Temperatures hovering around 17-18°C by day, and only dropping to 16-17°C overnight.
Surf and the Water
The west coast will host some gorgeously clean surf, even better than the previous day. The wave size being around 3-5 feet. Once again, the west and north coast will be best for swimmers. But care will have to be taken to stay safe around the large tides and swell. High water will be about 9.5m again, at both 8:15am and 8:30pm. Low water will be at 2:40pm
The Rest of Next Week
Weather
Lots of sunshine and very few showers. The breeze will be from somewhere between the SSW and the WSW Tuesday to Thursday, only light force 3 for much of that time. Thus max temps should be 18-19°C for each of those days. Friday looks like it’s taking a downhill turn though, when a cool NNW’ly (fresh force 5) blasts all that mild air back to the continent. On the plus side though, it looks as though the only rainfall will be in the night time, so probably dry and sunny by the time most people are having breakfast. The Friday temperature only getting up to around 15-16°C and the windchill making it feel even cooler. Therefore, the south coast will definitely be the best place to enjoy the Autumn sunshine on that day.
Surf and the Water
The surf will be mostly clean, with the wind only turning properly onshore on Friday. Waves will be 2-3 feet at times, 4-6 feet at other times. High tides will be in the mornings (reducing day by day until only 8m on Friday morning). Low tides will be in the afternoons.
The next forecast update will be on Monday or Tuesday…
