Woohoo! Little fun looking waves for Sunday morning at Dee Why

Hello Friends,

What a nice looking morning down at Dee Why. Shame I can’t join the growing crowd. Gotta do the radio thing with Simon Marnie and Dr. Rip at about 1010 or so on 702 ABC. Sets seemed to be nudging into the chest high category when I checked around 0830. Plus it was glassy and for a Sunday, relatively uncrowded. As of 0500 swell’s out of the SE at 1.5 metres or so with an average period of 7.5 seconds. So, nothing special on that front, but for whatever reason, at just on high tide, it was coming together.

Wind was doing nothing much when I checked, and looks like it’ll gradually drift around to the onshore from the south later, but not get up too much.

Week ahead looks like little knee to waist sessions, but maybe week after next things will perk….

Have yourself some fun everyone!

Weather Situation
A high pressure system is centred over the Tasman Sea while a broad trough extends through Queensland and northern New South Wales. An offshore low is expected to remain slow moving in the western Tasman directing a moderate south to southwesterly airstream along the coast. Southerlies will weaken on Sunday under a feeble ridge, followed by weak northerlies developing on the southern half by next Tuesday.
