Surf forecast South Sumatra

The accuracy of current weather models is very low when predicting conditions beyond 36 hours and with no real wave bouys anywhere near the Lampung coastline numerical forecasting for this area should be seen as prophecy rather than fact.

Believing swell predictions 5 days in advance in this area of the world is bordering on delusional.

Actual ship observations

Ship observations for the last 12 hrs, covering a 500km radial area of the Indian Ocean south of Krui. The column labeled WVHT is the observed wave height in meters (even though the chart says feet).
