Hello Friends,
Well, that’s disappointing. I’d hoped for at least a little something to splash about in this morning at Dee Why, but it so small that I’m not sure you could catch much of anything at all. The wind was light early and the sea surface was glassy, but the tiny SE wind swell was just barely evident. It’s only 7 seconds apart and maybe a metre out at sea, so there really isn’t much prospect of an improvement.
And speaking of sad prospects, this morning’s swell modelling holds little joy for east coast surfers. The outlook is for very small to near flat for the next week at least. There seems to be a hint of a hope of a small improvement coming our way mid next week, but of course it’s all highly speculative at this point. The high pressure systems in the Tasman are keeping any swell generators out of our window unfortunately.
This too will pass my friends, so keep on smilin’ and have yourself a top old Saturday.
Tides: H @0505 L @1130
