Light easterly winds are delivering a chopfest to our beaches. Outlook is for the wind to be E/SE all day, so you’ll want to be extra keen to get in the water I’d say. On top of the wind, or rather under it, the sea is currently slopping a rather ordinary SE windswell at us. It’s a couple metres offshore, but the average period is a platry 7 seconds so finding anything much above waist high will be an accomplishment.
The Goat’s forecast is interesting. He’s not as bullish on the swell prospects as the latest run of models for the Sydney region. We shall see what we shall see, but it looks from the WAMs as though we should definitely get surf over the Sun-Tue period.
Have yourself a good one!

Weekend warriors weren’t put off by the somewhat junky conditions mid-morning at No Mans and Long Reef on Sunday 29 August. Sets were into the shoulder high range and there were...
Saturday morning saw a couple metres of south swell with a period of about 10 seconds lighting up beaches around Sydney. South Narrabeen was looking tasty early with offshore conditions...
What a great weekend! So what if Huey didn’t deliver as expected – the sun shone, the wind blew offshore and there were waves! I burnt a bit of petrol cruising round...
