Hello Friends,
Will we break the server again this morning… I’m on tenter hooks… As anticipated, the swell peaked overnight. It’s still dead south and the MHL data is now showing average size of 3 metres at 11 sec, with some peak component of 15 sec and sea + swell heights of 5 metres. So, yeah, it’s still plenty big.
Dee Why beach didn’t seem to have any takers when I checked at around 0720. The point has a few on it, but not the nutty numbers of yesterday – yet. Size, as the picture shows, is looking to be into the 1.5 to 2x overhead range at the biggest moments on the biggest set waves.
The Bureau says that the wind should be out of the S-SW at 10-15 kts, but light inshore at first.
It also agrees with the models about the swell dropping through the day. However, “dropping” doesn’t mean going flat. The Bureau says it could still be averaging around the 3 metre mark by dark.
Outlook for tomorrow is for the wind to swing SE and be 15-20 kts my mid morning on Thursday, while the swell is currently anticipated to be a still useful 2-2.5 metres. And it looks likely to stay around that level through Saturday.
Go well with your day and catch lots of waves!
