Grey, yeah, so what

Hello Friends,
Dull skies and light SE wind this morning. Not too fabulous looking it has to be said. Still, there were a fair number of bods in chasing the junky waist high sets at Dee Why. Swell is out of the south. It’s a couple metres out at sea and while the average period is around 8 seconds, there is some 12 sec component (which probably accounts for the surfable sets).
From the MHL data down the coast, it looks as though the swell energy will peak around lunchtime. It looks as though we’ll have to put up with the SE’r all day unfortunately.
The WAMs have been rather variable lately. This morning sees interpretations of the data all over the shop. There might be some small and weak remnants of our less than spectacular windswell tomorrow morning. The Bureau says the breeze will be light and out of the north to begin, so those northern stretches will possibly be the best bet for a splash.
The rest of the week is shaping up to be mainly small and marginal. There seems to be some hope for a little something at east swell spots around Christmas Day. Between now and then it’s going to be a challenge to find much of anything above waist high.
Hope those models are wrong…
Have yourself a top old day!

1-2 feet from the SE
Posted on December 20th, 2009 in Curl Curl, Surf Reports.Small 1-2 feet from the SE with a light SE wind and low crowd for good reason. There’s a junior comp on down south and karate training up north on the beach and no one in the water up north ‘cos there’s no waves. Outlook remains poor.

Mixed Nuts, In Byron Bay Today’s Weekend Review.
Posted on December 20th, 2009 in Byron.
been like bag of miked nuts in Byron Bay this week. Everyone picked off the Cashews and Pecans, by the end of the week there was nothing left but peanuts. We had an early taste of things to come with some gentle summer easterlies, a little rain, an easterly swell, some warm sunny days and heaps of dolphins. Then just when we we’re all getting used to it and settling into the summer pattern. We’re once again slammed by strong northerlies trying to push us back into spring. However this is pretty much in line with the December weather patterns up here. The question on everyone’s lips now is ‘will the northerlies back off after Christmas?’ Historically yes, they do, like clockwork. The Christmas break comes and the weather changes. The dry hot northerlies back off and are replaced with moist, lighter easterly trade winds and south easterlies as the air is sucked back up north into the tropical lows as they form. Will this happen this year? Well only time will tell, we had a very warm current come through last Saturday afternoon full of bluebottles , which is a fairly strong sign of some tropical lows may be on the way. Although maybe not quite just yet, In Byron Bay Today.
