Postcard from Cali (& Sydney surf thoughts)
Hello Friends, Seems likely that most Sydney surfers will, like most southern California surfers, be giving it a miss today. The fates are ganging up against northern beaches waterpersons in particular, what with the onshores, rain and the dead whale at Newport potentially luring lots of sharks inshore. The Goat’s call from yesterday is lining […]
The Goat’s Surf Forecast
Surf forecast issued Thursday 28 April 2011 for Sydney: Grandson Josh: Pa why are you cranky today? Pa: I’m not cranky mate. We’re having fun. Josh: Daddy said this morning you’d be cranky today (with the wind, the surf, the rain showers etc). >>>But I wasn’t cranky because I was expecting it …. – so neither should you – […]
Horrible.
Its not happening on the surf front. Onshore slop is a good description on what going on. Not much more to say really. Surf Photos of You.

Yeah, there are waves. But there’s also heaps of unfavourable wind. Were there a sheltered corner down here, I’m still not sure you’d want to go surfing today
Postcard from Cali + Sydney surf thoughts
Hello Friends, Tide’s low a little after 1100 in Sydney and the wind’s supposed to be out of the SE by then. It was showing as NE at North Head when I started tapping this out at a little after 0700 – which is kinda weird since the radar’s showing a steady line of rain […]
Time to look ahead
A bit bigger today but no less crap. Still onshore, bumpy etc but a little more size always helps with head high sets. I’m a lot more excited about the forecasted weather maps though. Check out the nugget low thats supposed to form into Sunday below. That my Gen-y internet forecasting friends is a good […]
Dee Why Afternoon Upate: No improvements noted
Same as it was earlier today at Dee Why. Onshore, small and sloppy. Looks like it hasn’t Jon T. and a few other desperates out of the water though.
Postcard from Cali (+ reflections on Sydney)
Hello Friends, Your humble servant has returned to the world of powerpoints and internet connections after a sojourn in the remote desert of SE California. And what do I see? 2 metres of SE swell showing on the MHL buoy off Sydney, that’s what. Period is ranging from a windswelly 8 seconds to a punchy […]
Bump and slop again.
Not much happening on the surf front this morning. If you are lucky enough to still be on holidays or not working you will have to be keen to go surfing. Still a strong on shore wind blowing. Its a very bumpy wind swell with no power. 2 – 3 foot slop. Not much […]

Crook, windy, grey, messy, shapeless
