Hello Friends,

Light was fading fast thanks to the showers and heavy cloud. But your correspondent made another dash out for a look at the situation.

Nup. Still no where near surfable, even though the swell seems to have peaked (at a very impressive 6 metres at 11sec).

Grabbed a couple pictures on the Collaroy-Narra stretch to give you an idea of how things were looking. Some sets off the southern end of Gardens were breaking a good 300-400 metres out from the beach. A huge amount of sand sweeping down the beach I should imagine because the surf zone looked to be a couple hundred metres wide. My guess is that come tomorrow morning, the beach along the Collaroy end will be quite a bit narrower on high tides after this.

South Narra stretch was pretty big at dusk.

Northy on a day even the most hardened local will be leaving alone.
