Summary
Forecast for the next 7 days according to Reefranger:
Today’s conditions at Rain Island are less than ideal for snorkeling or diving, with moderate swells of 1.2 meters and strong wind at 28.1 km/h from the east-southeast, which might create surface chop. Ocean temperatures are pleasantly warm at 28.6°C, so no wetsuit is necessary. For the rest of the week, Friday and Saturday present the best opportunities with slightly decreased winds and manageable swells around 1.6 and 1.7 meters. Avoid Monday and Tuesday, as wind speeds exceed 30 km/h, increasing surface disturbance. Always ensure safety and check local updates before heading out.

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.
