Summary
Forecast for the next 7 days according to Reefranger:
Today’s conditions at North Rock are not ideal for snorkeling or diving, with a swell of 2.2 meters, a west wind at 14.8 km/h, and an ocean temperature of 22°C. Throughout the week, Friday looks promising for underwater activities, with a lower swell of 1.4 meters and a milder SSE wind at 16.9 km/h. Avoid Saturday and Monday due to high winds, which can create a surface chop, impacting visibility and comfort. Given the slightly cooler ocean temperatures hovering around 22°C, wearing a 3mm wetsuit would ensure a comfortable experience in the water.

Diving Forecast
These are the reefranger ratings for the next 7 days. Ratings are available for the morning, low tide, and high tide. Tides are shown during the daytime (6am to 8pm). Ratings currently take into account Swell Height, Swell Direction, and location exposure based on swell direction versus the orientation of the site.
Scores reflect the ocean conditions in the 2 hours between 8am and 10am, and consider local heavy rainfall in the period prior.

Model
Swell and wind impact diving suitability, but not all swells and winds are equal. A dive site may be protected from wind and swell by nearby geography. The model uses these exposure ratings to determine how much impact a wind and swell will have on the dive site, based on the origin of the winds or waves.
