Hello Friends,
Gee, doesn’t Sydney like a SE swell? It’s nothing amazing, but we do have a couple metres of 9 to 10 second SE swell this morning, so with minimal effort you should be able to jag something. Wind was lightly offshore to begin with, but the Bureau says it’ll go around to the easterly quarters and gradually settle to the NE this afternoon. The morning session should generally be the better option, but it doesn’t look as though the swell will decline much between now and dark.
Longer term, it would seem that there should be a little something again tomorrow, but probably less consistent and smaller than today. Beyond that, the indicators are pointing toward marginal to flat. So get out there if you can in the next couple days…
Have yourself a fun Wednesday and go well with your plans!
TIDES: L @0830, H @1500
Weather Situation
A high pressure system centred near Tasmania extends a ridge along the New South Wales coast. This ridge will gradually weaken as the high drifts towards New Zealand today, allowing a low pressure trough to move into the far west of the state overnight before continuing to the coast later Thursday and Friday. Following this, there are indications that a cold front may sweep across the region later on the weekend.
