Hello Friends,
A hint of the colder months to come in the air this morning. Wind was out of the SW at 10-15 kts and there’s a couple metres of six sec period south wind swell. Being a holiday, the peaks at the Dee Why end of the beach where the wind’s more favourable are well attended. Size looks to be in the chest plus range on the bigger sets. Tide is high around 1025, so early risers are still having to deal with the fullness issue. It might possibly get a little better as the tide drops in the middle part of the day and the wind drops back a bit. The complicating factor is that the wind is set to go around to the south rather than the early SW’ly.
Outlook is for smallness across the next few days says the Goat.
Have yourself a good Friday!
