Weather Report for Saturday the 16th and Sunday the 17th of January - plus a little bit beyond!

This westerly pattern we have been having fluctuates a bit over the weekend, but stays at about 10 - 15 knots NW.
We have an easterly swell of about 2 metres, which the surfers are pretty amped about, and it may just bring some more blue water in too!

The cloudy sky tells of rain, but don’t expect much on the Tutukaka Coast until about maybe Wednesday, when we see this NW turn to a NE of about 20 knots, at lunchtime, and 25 knots in the late evening, dropping back to 15 knots again by Thursday afternoon.

Forward through to next weekend, we have a westerly flow back of about 15 knots some northerly and a swing to the south.

The visibility is 15 plus metres, with 19 degrees on the surface, and 18 at depth.
