Summary
Forecast for the next 7 days according to Reefranger:
Today, conditions at Rye Pier are less than ideal for snorkeling or diving due to a higher swell of 1.5 meters and strong southeast winds at 25.2 km/h, which will likely generate some surface chop. However, conditions improve towards the weekend; Friday offers the best conditions with a manageable 1.0-meter swell and lighter winds at 13.7 km/h. Thursday and Saturday are also decent options. Monday and Tuesday present challenging conditions with high swells and strong north winds. Ocean temperatures remain around 18°C, so a 3mm wetsuit is recommended for comfort and insulation.

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.
