"Stay happy and you'll be perfectly fine" - Jack Norris

Midday snapshot

late morning, tide high, choppy and messy, but at least there's some size.

Just back from another wander around the northern beaches and it appears that there is nowhere really doing it. About the best of the bunch were the chaotic sections popping up at Dee Why point and the tide-fattened little sections at south Steyne.

Reporter PB and I had a coffee at the cafe across from the Bower and I can tell you that late this morning it was just way too fat to do anything with. The swell seems to be going well wide too, so I’m not convinced it will be a lot better at low tide. A couple bods paddled out, but we didn’t see them catch a single wave.

Street run-off from the showers of the last day or two have made the water look pretty cloudy and unappetizing everywhere I looked.

Like every other surfer in Sydney, I’m keen to get in after those weeks of dribble, but I don’t think today’s the day for me…

Go well with your afternoon.
