Hello Friends,
Light winds and a somewhat intermittent south swell for the morning folk on this Monday. Bureau says there could be a few more showers as the day goes along. From the look of the buoy data and the forecast models, we should have more or less the same conditions for the rest of the day.
Sets at Dee Why are in the chest high range. There was a real difference in consistency between the point and the beach. I guess the swell’s mostly missing it, but that hasn’t dissuaded a sizable group of optimists.
Outlook for the next couple days is still looking pretty much the same as yesterday’s run of the models. And the good news is that from Thursday through the weekend south swell spots should be kicking into high gear as 3-5 metres of 10-11 second energy arrives. The wind will be pretty strong though. According to this morning’s models it’ll be SW at 20 to 25 kts – give or take – across the entire period.
While Sydney surfers will be enjoying that juice, your correspondent will be spending some time with his family on the other side of the pond – and it looks like being damn small for the coming week. boo.
Go well one and all!
