Hello Friends,
Not much of anything on offer ahead of what is expected to be a windy day. Swell is out of the SSE at maybe half a metre and 7 seconds apart. There is some 11 second stuff in there and while nothing was evident along the Dee Why to Longy stretch, there was a tiny little (well-attended) peak at Northy. Set waves up there looked to be in the waist high range.
According to the Bureau, we’re set for stiff norherlies today. These are expected to last for at least the next three days.
The models show surf prospects as being minimal for Sydney through to Saturday morning, but then the prediction is that we’ll get a strong south pulse that could reverberate for a couple days or so. Right now it looks as though Sunday morning could be interesting…
Have a great Wednesday!
