Hello Friends,
Sorry to run so late, computer issues this end. Swell has dropped in size at sea to around 2.5 metres on average. It’s still out of the south and Huey’s dialled the power down to an average period of about 9 seconds. The sets are now much further apart at Dee Why. The waits are longer at the point than up the beach. Being school hols, there are adequate numbers at both spots.
You can definitely have fun with these waves because the bigger sets are still pushing the head high mark. But the expected downward trend is definitely in place.
From the shape of the forecast models it looks as though the energy will sputter out over the next few days, but we’re unfortunately in for a more onshore wind regime at the same time.
What an amazing run of swell we’ve had!
Have yourself a top old Friday – and keep on smilin’
