Definitely some waves around, but quality is not too astounding.
Hello Friends,
Well, there are waves… but I think a level of keeness is required however to get you into the water this morning. Swell is a couple metres from the SE at about 9 seconds apart, but gee is it ever lumpy, bumpy and messy. Wind is out of the east along the northern beaches as I write this, and out of the NW over in the eastern suburbs. However, as the Bureau’s forecast below indicates, it’s due to settle into an E-SE’r. Sadly, that won’t do anything to improve conditions. Looks like junkworld across the beaches of the Sydney region for today. Oh, and it’s supposed to rain heavily at times as well.
Tomorrow could see more of the junkiness, but with luck there might be a change in the mix that might just possibly see a little activity in the north corners. The swell could still have some SE compnent and the wind is due to be out of the NE. The models show the swell direction swinging around to line up with the wind, so you couldn’t say the outlook was spectacular.
Speaking of the models, there currently seems to be a common expectation that we’ll have light offshores from Sunday morning through Monday afternoon along with 2-3 metres of 7-9 sec ENE windswell…
Have yourself a top old day!
Next tide is a low at 0944.
Sydney Coastal Waters, Broken Bay to Port Hacking and 60nm seawards:
Thursday until midnight: Wind: E/SE 13/18 knots. S/SW to 10 knots inshore early. Sea: about 1.5 metres. Swell: SE 2 to 2.5 metres. Chance isolated thunderstorms.
Friday: Wind: E/NE 13/18 knots.Sea: 1 to 1.5 metres.Swell: E/SE about 2 metres.
Saturday: Wind: NE 15/25 knots.
Whadya reckon… have I earned a coffee yet this week?

- Rhettro slotted on his old tracker In Byron Bay Today
Well the swell did jack up a bit In Byron Bay Today, as did the wind, clouds, rain and crowds. There was however a few moments when the sun blazed and the wind dropped. But winter was most definitely back in the driver seat today. The new swell wrapped round the cape and marched straight on into the bay. There was not a lot of power to it but if you brought the right equipment there were plenty of fun slides to be had. Now the local crew knew what to do, so they brought their logs and proceeded to play. And so it was that there was much rejoicing and plenty of silliness, In Byron Bay Today.
