Northerly swell



I'll be keeping my eye on this nice little low heading over Northern Ireland this weekend and into next week. I was hoping to score waves out west in Lahinch - Mayo country this trip but I'm not sure that's going to happen now looking at the long range weather charts.

A few spots up north should be firing though and the beauty of Ireland is that there is always somewhere to surf and a new spot waiting to be discovered just around the corner.

Rumour has it, we might be hooking up with Irish big wave legend Al Mennie again - so hopefully we'll get some decent sized waves this time - anything will be better than the 2ft drivel we had last trip back in April.

Local news - the surf comp organised by Steve Horn had some decent swell for the contest on Saturday and Sunday at Rest Bay.

Nothing much in the way of surf again today as high pressure continues to dominate our weather. This cloud should clear for the weekend though.
