Conditions improving this afternoon - sheltered breaks offer more manageable surf

Afternoon Outlook: conditions smoothing out this afternoon as the tide drops backs, especially at spots that handle increasing S/SSW wind. Sheltered breaks are looking fun and super-clean, overhead sets at the more exposed beaches if that's your thing.

Conditions continue to improve through the remainder of the day although you will need to tuck in from a gusty SSE wind if you're surfing after work. Low pressure on it's way in from the south-west.
