Waves and swell are adjusted for this site's shelter from the coastline. Arrows point where the wind and swell go. Night hours are shaded. Tide times come from an ocean model: usually within about half an hour, more in complex waters. Check official tide tables.

Conditions at Kelvin Grove

Kelvin Grove is well sheltered: land blocks the open sea in most directions, so it is often diveable when nearby coasts are rough.

Over the next 7 days it's good or better every day. Wed, Thu and Fri are only a trend so far.

The water is 11 °C at the surface, so a 7 mm with hood, or drysuit suits most dives.

Shelter

Sheltered from N–SSE, SW: land blocks the waves.

Computed from the OpenStreetMap coastline. Wind itself is not reduced by shelter.

About this forecast

Updated Sat 14 Nov, 08:30 · weather run 06Z 14 Nov · waves run 00Z 14 Nov

Waves are adjusted for this site's shelter from the coastline.

Tides come from a coarse ocean model. The range, and whether tides are bigger or smaller this week, are about right. Times are usually within about half an hour, but complex tides (the Solent, Portland, narrow straits) are poor. Slack water isn't in the score yet: plan with official tide tables and local advice.
