Postcard from the Barossa

Hello Friends,

Cool and breezy morning not far from Rosedale.

No wave activity to report from the lovely Barossa Valley where your correspondent is currently visiting family. Rather dull and overcast this morning and a pleasantly cool 21.

Selfish, I know, but it’s a comfort to a landlocked surfer that there really aren’t too many waves being missed by yours truly. From the marine forecast, it looks as though there might be the odd wind wave around by late this afternoon – if the NE’r does in fact get to 20-30 kts. But all and all, it seems that Sydney has another pretty ordinary surf week in prospect. I’m hoping that by some miracle there will be a little something to catch on Tuesday morning before I head off for a visit to family in California. My goal will be to get in the water for a wave on both sides of the Pacific on the same day… but I’m not sure Huey will cooperate… outlook for Sydney is currently for tiny junky south windswell, and for southern California, the call is for an equally paltry 1-2 ft of WNW swell… (December in Cali was dreadful and January looks like starting out badly as well).

Better get on to some work stuff now, catch ya again soon…

Flat as

Great conditions – bar no swell. Light offshores, and 1ft.

More Groundhog Day…

Warm,grey,and flat

Tiny once again with waves barely reaching the 1foot mark.Great day for learners.Lots of people out in the water though enjoying the social aspest of surfing.
