That’s Thursday just about gone

Hello Friends,

Gotta love Huey. He reckoned we weren’t surfed out yet, so he just kept the swell machine on. Okay, there was the little matter of the wind re-adjustment late this morning which meant that yours truly only got a couple smooth ones at Manly before it got all ruffled and messy. Wind was still out of the ENE along the coast of Sydney as we ran out of daylight, but at least it wasn’t too strong. Certainly it wasn’t putting off a good size crew at Dee Why. I’d bet good money there are similar size crowds everywhere else that’s liking the ESE swell.

So, now that Thursday’s pretty much in the memory banks, how’s it looking for tomorrow?

Well, let’s start with the people who really ought to know… our chums at the BoM…

Friday: Wind: N/NW 5/10 knots, tending N/NE in afternoon and increasing to 15/20 knots, 20/25 knots offshore in evening.Sea: About 1 metre rising to 1.5 to 2.5 metres later. Swell: E/SE 1.5 to 2.5 metres.
A fine and mostly sunny morning after some early fog patches clear.
Cloud increasing later in the afternoon or evening, with the chance
of a shower or two overnight. Light to moderate northeast to
northwest winds.

First tide for Friday is a high at 0722.

Dunno about you, but I quite like the look of the possibilities for tomorrow morning. Should be waves at lots and lots of places too. Woo hoo!
