Hello Friends,
There were some pretty fun and juicy looking waves around yesterday evening (as selected spots). The swell had come around to the SE and bumped up into th 1.5m range, but the key change was the period which jumped (briefly) from 7 seconds at first light to around 11 mid afternoon. And there was some 15 second component in the mix.
Sadly, this morning sees the average period back to 8 seconds, and as a consequence it’s much smaller on average than it was yesterday arvo. The only bright spot is that the Sydney buoy is still showing some 14 sec period swell around the place. That should mean the occasional bomb set into the shoulder high range at spots with good exposure to the SE.
Wind is currently out of the west at 15-20kts and the next tide is a low at 0913.
Gotta jam, will try to post again later.
