Weather (Updated Apr 25th)

Basic Summary: Weather forecast changing daily due to the very deep depression over Iceland. Still looks like we could have some good weather and sun at the weekend but Thursday and Friday still looking lumpy.

Tide

Over the weekend we have neap tides with high around lunch time and a range of around 3m.  I have put the tidal heights and curves for Friday, Saturday & Sunday below.

Tidal Flows

Note the tidal flows are based on High Water Plymouth.  This is 11:15 on Friday, 12:20 on Saturday & 13:40 on Sunday. The bigger the arrow the stronger the flow. The number (05.11 refers to tidal flow strength & direction, use the smaller number as we will be on neaps)
