Hello Friends,
Grey, almost foggy start to the day in Sydney. Looks like our swell has declined significantly overnight. It’s actually a touch bigger out at sea than this time yesterday, but the all important period setting has gone from 11-13 sec to 9-10 sec. At Dee Why this is translating into weak and crumbly waist high conditions that had not attracted anyone into the water as of 0700.
My hunch is that places with direct exposure to the swell direction should still be showing a little something. Outlook is for the wind to be out of the N-NE early, but not getting up to much in the way of velocity.
Surf outlook across the remainder of the work week is not looking too spectacular. Indeed you’d have to say it’s pretty likely to be flat to nearly flat most places until the weekend.
The long range models have been swinging about lately. They’re currently showing the possibility of reasonable chest to head high waves out’ve the easterly quarters. Hope it pans out that way…
In the meantime, pile into your Tuesday with great effect!
