## Conditions at SS Doris

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

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

The water stays warm past 56 m.
