21.4.26 No report Wednesday and Sunday.
This surf report relies on website sales to keep going, please consider us when next buying online. Use it or lose it.
Remember: A veering wind clocks clockwise (eg: west veering northwest or east veering southerly) and a backing wind clocks anticlockwise (eg: west backing southwest or south backing southeast). Also, there is no such word as 'forecasted' in the UK (probably some hick Americanism). The past, present and future tense of 'forecast' is 'forecast'. Thank you.
Wind Strength (simplified): Light <7mph, Moderate <18mph, Fresh <29mph, Strong <38mph, Gale <46mph, Severe Gale <54mph, Storm <72mph.
Porth Neigwl (Hell's Mouth) Surf Report: Tuesday, April 21st. There was a light to moderate, offshore, easterly at dawn. Perfect surface conditions but there wasn't any swell. Less than shin high at low water.
High Tide: 21.4.26 11.30 4.6m
The NEW LIVE Webcam is back.
The rest of today: The wind is forecast to increase fresh today and may back a little. I do not expect surf.
Outlook: Most models, but not all, predict a favourable southwest fetch should begin later today around the depression to the west of Trafalgar. It is forecast to assume a better shape later Wednesday and through Thursday. If this happens, we could see some swell by Friday.
