Waves hanging in there
Posted on August 2nd, 2009 in Big Picture, Curl Curl.Hello Friends,
Just thought I’d test to see if our pic uploader was working again and let you know that as of 1300, there was still swell aplenty at south facing spots.
From the look of the latest MHL data, the energy levels have stayed about the same all day. Not so sure about tomorrow, but I do note with interest that the period has increased down at Eden, so it is not without hope that I look forward to the possibility of a wave tomorrow (I kinda passed for other stuff today…)
Smaller, but we still have waves
Posted on August 2nd, 2009 in Big Picture, Dee Why.Hello Friends,
Looks like we won’t have fresh snaps up today until a tech issue gets sorted. In the meantime I can tell you that we still have waves, albeit smaller than yesterday by about 30 percent where the Dee Why end of the Longy-DY stretch is concerned. I’d expect the south swell magnets to still be pulling the odd shoulder to head high plus set, but semi-protected corners that were bigger yesterday are more likely to be in the waist to chest high range.
Outlook is for a gradual decay in bomb set frequency and average size. However, I don’t think it’ll go flat. With luck we should have something at the small end of the spectrum through tomorrow.
Get out there and get into it if you can!
Low tide’s at 1117 and high’s at 1800
