Hello Friends,
Nice and glassy with light wind for the early. But far better than that, there were waist to chest plus lines at Dee Why thanks to nearly two metres of close to 14 sec SE swell (well, that’s what it was at 0400!). Swell energy is still showing down south of us, so the prospects are for it to continue this morning. However, from the shape of the swell modelling, the energy’s expected to fade late this afternoon.
Tomorrow’s looking small and the rest of the week is likely to be generally marginal.
Have yourself a great Monday one and all!
Tides: L @0955, H @1645
