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

Grey? Rainy? You’re kidding, right?

Smaller and weaker than yesterday, but somethin' left in the tank for the keen.

Hello Friends

Yet another gloomy kick off to a new day’s proceedings in Sydney. Swell has faded since yesterday at this time, but as my picture of Dee Why shows, it’s not flat. Yeah, the quality in absolute terms isn’t amazing or anything, but there are some waist high sets. I reckon a mal or a fish would deliver the highest return on your time investment.

Swell is currently out of the east at about 1.5 metres. Huey’s put the power setting on 8 seconds. We’re due to have NE winds around the 10-15 kt range. Breeze should be light this morning and the Bureau says the rain episodes should ease up during the day in Sydney.

Outlook is for the swell to bumble along at the current power settings through to around midday on Friday. Then, from the look of the models, we’re set for a weekend of minimal surf opportunities. Oh well.

Just picked this up from @Stevieenglish on Twitter: “surf done and dusted, not much doing today. a bit full, got in 40 mins in Bronte with 2 other guys thats always nice”

Have a great day one and all
