yes there have been some
yes there have been some conflicting reports lately between the two, particularly early in the week. I think you'll find the two websites will amend their forecasts over the next 2 days to something more realistic.
regardless doesn't look good with a +3m swell rolling through.

Forecast
We always use Seabreeze and BOM as they seem to be more accurate and often on the same page. We find Willy forecast not be so accurate (each to their own) and yes Saturday night will be very windy by the looks.

I notice nobody ever
I notice nobody ever reccomends BOM's forecaster Meteye, it has been pretty reliable for me. I usually average out between Meteye and Seabreeze, trusting Meteye a bit more..

Depends on your location
Depends on your location setting of ww. Seabreeze forecast tends to be accurate with what ends up at rotto but inshore conditions vary depending on location. Just look down the page on seabreeze and youl see what I mean, wind strenghts and directions are different at other locations sometimes. Apoarently seabreeze has their own recording gear but not as good and as well maintained as boms gear. Regardless, it will be shit this weekend Id say
I am, as I've said, merely competent. But in an age of incompetence, that makes me extraordinary.

I trust seabreeze's forecast
I trust seabreeze's forecast for Saturday, on a Tuesday.
Everything is pointing to a pretty shitty weekend boating wise.
