Glassy & waves

Quality’s not amazing, but there are definitely some waves around this morning and the howling wind of yesterday has disappeared as expected. Sets at Dee Why look to be around the chest high mark, maybe a touch bigger. The point seems to be smaller than the beachy and it’s much less consistent. According to the MHL buoy, the average size of the south swell at sea is around 3 metres and the average period is around 10 sec with some 11 second stuff in the mix.

0745: more waves in the beach break than at the point.

This is the Bureau’s summary for NSW: “A pulse of large southerly swell will affect the NSW coast today and Thursday. It has the potential to cause some dangerous surf conditions, though given the southerly nature, it is likely to affect southern facing beaches most; primarily in the Hunter. The timing is such that the highest swells are likely overnight tonight with an easing trend from the south during Thursday. Northerly winds will freshen this afternoon with a rather weak southerly change affecting southern coastal parts on Thursday. Winds should quickly revert to a northerly on Friday ahead of a change on Saturday.

Sounds like a plan to get out there asap.

Go well!
