Hello Friends,
Today’s big weather feature is pretty obviously that WNW wind whistling around the joint. If there were any swell, it’d be struggling to do much. Only a bit of white water splashing about the rocks at Dee Why point and no real hint of anything along the beach it has to be said.
With no real hope of a wave today, hopeful eyes turn to the latest interpretations of the swell forecast models. The prospect of a nice south pulse at the weekend is still in this morning’s predictions. Some have it peaking late Saturday and others are going for early Sunday. Something to look forward to at any rate.
Have a good Thursday!
