Hello Friends,
Running a bit late this morning, apologies. S-SSW winds are staying clear of Dee Why this morning and the gradually fading south to SSE swell is hanging in there at around the two metre mark with an average period of about 8 seconds. There seems to be some longer period stuff in the mix though because the waist high conditions are punctuated from time to time with something more like shoulder high.
Wind is set to go more SE as the day goes along, but it’s also supposed to back off as well. We have a late morning low tide, so I reckon the best time to go will be before lunch if you can.
The outlook is for the swell to drop overnight but with luck to still be in the surfable range for tomorrow. But after that things currently look distinctly ordinary through the middle of next week. The WAMs show us bumping along in a state of flatness from about Saturday to Weds – at least. If you’re on the east coast and want waves next week, the nearest sizable ones look like being in Western Vic!
Ah well, enjoy what we have and hope for Huey’s beneficence later next week…
