The Goat’s Forecast

Surf forecast issued Thrursday 24 July 2008: 4 day outlook for Sydney.

No idea where this will end up… or what it will look like… but what the hey… there’s this tune running through my head: “things can only get better… :)”

Might be sort of OK for the weekend.  Swell around 1- 2 metres from the SE with some westerly winds…But with the air and water temps around 17, and the breeze likely to be on the fresh side at times, it’s not for me… I’m out of it just for the moment. 

Friday: in the 1-2 metre range from the South East.

Saturday: (let me just cut and paste that)… in the 1-2 metre range from the South East.

Sunday: (and again)…in the 1-2 metre range from the South East.

Monday: coming up! 2-3 metres South East.

Water temp is 17…(did I say that already??)

Btw, as a public service announcement for anyone thinking of going to Bali to escape the cold:  Did you know there’s an epidemic of dengue fever there?… That’s what a mate was told when he spent several days on a drip in hospital with dengue fever and 10 days recovering before coming home, and telling me… I’m not a doctor or a travel agent, but you might want to check it out.  And the dfat advice at www.dfat.gov.au.

Have yourself a bonzer time!
