## Conditions at SS Chadwick

SS Chadwick is open to the sea from the **SSW–NNE**, so waves build there when the wind blows from those directions. Land shelters it from the NE–SSE.

Over the next 7 days it's good or better on Sun, Mon, Tue and Wed and a no-go on Sat (gusts). Thu and Fri are only a trend so far.

The water stays warm past 56 m.
