"Stay happy and you'll be perfectly fine" - Jack Norris

We’re waiting… in your own time Huey…

Afternoon update:
Well, the models were right… I couldn’t see it this morning, but a pulse did fill in (along with an onshore, sadly) and when I went by Curly mid-arvo there were a few okay size sets. However, the onshore was making it quite junky, there were long waits for catchable ones, and they seemed kinda weak.

Here’s a shot I grabbed…

(this morning I wrote)
Hello Friends,

Looking very small at Dee Why this morning. There’s only a metre of short period south windswell showing on the MHL buoy off Sydney at the moment. And given the data from the other buoys up and down the coast, I’m not hopeful of any immediate improvement. The models are suggesting a slight improvement around lunchtime, but I can’t see where it’d come from myself.

Outlook for the next couple days is for continued flatness, so put in a few unexpected appearances if you can. With luck those karma points will come in handy later in the week.

Latest run of the wave prediction models continues to show a steady upward ramp in our possibilities from Tuesday. If they’re right, we could see some waist high stuff from the east for Tuesday afternoon and then on Wednesday we could be seeing some head high plus south swell. But, if we’re lucky, that will just be prelude to some serious juice come next weekend. There is some serious fetch showing on the models for Fri-Sat… sure hope those predictions play out because if they do, there could be some sizable, long period south swell lighting up the joint…

Go well with your Saturday!
