Hello Friends,
Gotta do the right thing here and start by saying that the NSW Dept of Environment and Climate Change is warning that pollution is likely at all Sydney beaches today and tomorrow. The water doesn’t look too fabulous it has to be said, but there are waves attracting a few brave (foolhardy?) types.
Swell is out of the SE and winds were light for the early. Energy levels are pretty good with set wave faces definitely into the head high range at Dee Why and along the northern half of the Collaroy-Narrabeen stretch.
Wind was out of the SW to WSW as the day kicked off, but the Bureau says it’ll go southerly and go hard with it later.
Latest run of the WAMs is showing an energetic system developing in the Tasman by Monday and if they have it right, said system will be slinging some serious energy our way across the middle of the week.
Go well with your day and have a top old weekend!
