Hello Friends,
Another day of little but catchable waves unfolding at Sydney region surf spots that like east swell. The average period has stretched out to 11 seconds according to the MHL buoy data, so although the height of the swell at sea is just a metre, we should be getting wave faces on the biggest sets into the chest high range.
The swell conditions should stay around the same through the day, but the wind will gradually drift around to the NE. Obviously that will mean the best afternoon sessions will be in semi-protected north corners.
A scan of the latest run of the wave height models suggests that we’re unlikely to get much energy from Ului this far down the coast. If you want a taste, you’ll have to head north…
Go well with your day!
