"Stay happy and you'll be perfectly fine" - Jack Norris

Scrappy but still happening

 

 

Hello Friends,

Well, thereyago. Another morning with waves for Dee Why – and stormy skies too.Wave faces are in the chest high to maybe a touch overhead range at both the point and Dee Why centre. Swell’s backing off from yesterday but I can’t tell you by how much because the MHL Sydney buoy is off the air. My guess is it’s south with maybe a touch of east and somewhere around the two metre mark with an average period of about 8 seconds.

Tide’s high at 1010 or so, and low a little before 4pm.

We’re supposed to have an easing southerly, but as of 0800, the Bureau was recording light WSW at North Head, and weirdly, light SW at Little Bay and stiff southerly at Wattamolla. I’d be expecting it to turn southerly soon along the Sydney coast…

From the shape of this morning’s forecast models, it’s going to drop away to not much of anything in the next 24-36 hours.

Ah well, looks like while we got skunked up the coast yesterday, it absolutely pumped here. So I guess we should be happy for another day of surf of some description!

Go well one and all.
