Summary
Forecast for the next 7 days according to Reefranger:
Today at Northwest Solitary Island, swells are 2.3 meters with a SSE direction and winds reaching 27 km/h, leading to potentially choppy conditions. Better snorkeling and diving opportunities appear on Friday and Saturday when swells decrease to 1.6 and 1.4 meters respectively, with slightly reduced wind speeds. Throughout the week, ocean temperatures remain warm, around 25°C, so light wetsuits are recommended for comfort. Sunday and Monday also offer decent conditions with moderate swells around 1.7 meters. Caution is advised on Tuesday, as winds increase significantly to 33.8 km/h, potentially creating rough surface conditions.

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.
