Weekend wave warriors

We've had a bit of a wave drought on our hands this week. An early morning dip on Sunday delivered fairly gutless, yet clean 2-3ft with some fun head dips and cover ups but nothing to get your teeth into.

Windguru is promising better things to come for friday so I'm keeping my fingers crossed. Saturday and Sunday don't look too shabby either with SE (offshore winds) predicted and the water has warmed up nicely.

The debate is still out on whether 'one' should still be wearing a winter suit, boots, gloves. I for one, am staying firmly in the 'winter rubber with boots' camp for the time being.

Sea temperatures are currently a barmy 11.25c so it's almost time for buckets and spades...

Sunday looks very promising with a nice 996 > 992 deepening fairly rapidly down in the bay of Biscay so we should have a decent hit off that in South Wales.

The latest from BBC Wales weatherman - Derek Brockway:

"Weather wise the weekend doesn't look great. A little sunshine in places but with further showers or longer spells of rain at times.

Some places could get a good soaking with a risk of thunder.

Breezy on Saturday and feeling cool. Lighter winds on Sunday."
