Well, we have some swell

Hello Friends,

Pretty busy in the water at 0645.

As anticipated, we have a little swell this morning thanks to all that wind yesterday. At Dee Why, the point is pretty busy. The sets seem to be smaller and less consistent than over in the beachy, but the latter is getting its share of shutdowns. Biggest set I saw at the point was around head high, and biggest at the beach was just overhead.

Some fun size sets to be had at the beachy, but watch those sections.

The forecast last night was calling for stiff SE winds this morning, but instead we have SW’lys in the 10-15kt range along the northern beaches and in the 15-20 kt range in the eastern suburbs.

The Bureau’s call is as follows: “Wind: S/SE 20/25 knots, easing to 15/20 knots in the afternoon and 10/15 knots later.Sea: 1.5 to 2.5 metres, abating 1 to 2 metres in the afternoon. Swell: S/SE 2 to 3 metres, decreasing to 1 to 2 metres. ” And we’re set for cloudy periods with the odd shower.
