Hello Friends,
Nothing much happening at Dee Why this morning. The main swell direction is easterly. It’s about a metre but the period is a marginal 8 seconds, so there’s not much above the knee to waist high range. You might do a bit better than that at other spots, but I’d be keeping the expectations modest.
Once that change blows through tonight, we look set to be left with a so-so Monday morning. I’m not overly hopeful on that front. But the middle of the week is still looking okay, if not spectacular, on the models. A broad area of easterly windswell could move ashore from around Tuesday. I’m hoping for chest high plus around Wednesday at spots that like the swell direction.
Have yourself a top old Sunday!
