Rainy start to Tuesday

Hello Friends,

Hmmm. Let’s see… this morning starts out with rain and S-SSW winds of 10-20kts. Out at sea off Sydney, the MHL waverider buoy is showing a couple metres of south swell at about 7 seconds apart.  The Bureau says things aren’t going to get better for us either because the wind is set to back off a touch, but drift around to the east and northeast and stay at around 10-15kts. And the rain will continue too.

Can’t see the beach from the crows nest yet, so will get out and about with a camera to document the situation soon.

Tides: L @0900, H @1500
