SPAC SYNOPSIS: We’ve seen a flurry of intense South Hemi
storms lately with developing lows spinning out from under New Zealand
and tracking towards the Central-South Pacific... Further out; another
strong system developed through the past few days

and sent out another decent SW groundswell (200-220) for April 2-3 with
more head-overhead surf before backing down. Beyond that; the South
Pacific looks to remain cyclonically active as another storm is
currently developing deep in the South Hemi. Therefore, the SW energy
doesn't look to stop for the long-range. Stay posted as this system
unfolds.
Our next forecast update here will be Monday evening at 8 PM.

SR's Forcast as of 3/28/08 am

Looking good for Day 1 and Day 2









SPAC SYNOPSIS: We’ve seen a flurry of intense South Hemi storms lately with developing lows spinning out from under New Zealand and tracking towards the Central-South Pacific. A good sized SW swell lines up for the end of the week with fading surf expected for the weekend. Another shot of swell is on tap for the early part of April.

Our current run of SW groundswell (205-215) continues to build through the day on Thursday offering plenty of head-well overhead surf, strongest in the afternoon hours. This SW swell tops out on Friday and we can expect head-double overhead waves. Then SW energy very slowly tapers off through the weekend with head-overhead surf on Saturday dropping into the waist-head+ range for Sunday. Expect this round of SW swell to continue to fade for the early part of next week as well. Expect great conditions in the early mornings the next few days with calm/light offshore flow before the afternoon seabreeze picks up from the SW/SSW.

A system currently coming together in the Central SPAC will result in a decent run of SSW swell (205-215) filling in on Tuesday (April 1st) with head-well overhead surf expected for next Wednesday-Friday (April 2nd-4th). Stay posted as we continue to monitor this storm as it runs its course over the next few days. Further out, the South Pacific looks to remain cyclonically active through the end of March resulting in plenty of surf in the longer range as well. Be sure to check back for the latest updates over the next couple of days as we see continue to watch things unfold.

Our next forecast update here will be Friday evening at 8 PM
