Nothin’ doin’ at Dee Why

Hello Friends,

Tide was high at around 0720 this morning and according to the data from the MHL buoy off Sydney the primary swell direction was from the south. It was showing about 1.5 metres on average and the period was a windswell-y 7 seconds.

And the consequence?

Well at around 0900 when I checked, I couldn’t see anyone in the water at the Dee Why end of the beach.

A day for other activities. Indeed, it looks like the coming week will be best for non-surfing matters until around Friday – if then.

Have yourself a top old Sunday!
