Hello Friends,

Not the best looking conditions down at Dee Why beach this morning. Swell has dropped again overnight and it now looks as though the average wave is in the waist high range. Undoubtedly there will be some bigger sets, but if it’s like yesterday, it’ll be pretty disorganised and distinctly windswell-y. Weather promises to be fairly ordinary as well, so it’s looking like a good day to hoe into your chore list.

Might be a plan to block out some surf time in your diary for Sunday-Monday if you’re in the Sydney region. Here’s why:

WAM for Sunday: looking like a fetch for strong east swell.

The prospect is for a juicy east to ESE swell to begin filling in from late Saturday and, on current reckoning, to last through Tuesday. How good has this winter been?

Have yourself a top old day!
