Just had the first good winter storm in years to hit the Western Cape. Did all the right things: steady North gale. backing NW. rain starts, backing SW and wind moderating. Rin clears. Unfortunately Knysna and Plettenburg Bay on the South Coast about 400 kilometers away are suffering from fire storms that `with the hot dry winds that are running ahead of the frontal system. Such is the force vof nature!. Will go down to the beach later as the swell will be about 12 meters by mid-morning, 12 hours after the depression. Barometer bottomed yesterday afternoon so will see how the new beach protection holds up to its first real test.
