Rainy, breezy and micro early
Hello Friends, Surfers woke to grey and dripping skies this morning in Sydney. At Dee Why the ocean was looking very small to unsurfable at 0730. Swell was coming from the ESE at nearly 13 seconds apart, but it was less than a metre on average at sea. Wind was around 10 kts from the […]
Nice day at least
Beautiful sunny day for a surf but only for your longboard or SUP really. Maybe the 2pm low will help the lighter footed surfers on shortboards but you’ll probably need to be in south facing north corners to milk it. Mark – Surfboards Direct
Slumping back
Hello Friends, Tide was swallowing up any interesting looking lines coming into Dee Why at 0700. Swell has dropped back from 1.5 to 1 metre from the SE, although the average period is still 12 seconds. That could mean the odd interesting little waist high plus bump at SE magnet spots once the tide starts […]
Tiny but clean
Hello Friends, Light winds and about a 1.5 metres of 11 second period SSE swell were not delivering much for Dee Why as we approached the 0815 high tide under mostly cloudy skies. However, the Bureau is still saying that we can expect the swell to bump up around midday and to stick around at […]
Rainy morning
Hello Friends, Waiting for the rain to let up to grab a picture for you. From what I could see though, there isn’t going to be much to share. At 0700, the MHL Sydney buoy was showing 2 metres of 7-sec S-SSE wind swell. Wind is SSE at about 10-15 kts. Going by the forecast, […]
Clean but fat.
The early high tide really swallowed up this 3 foot swell. Mid morning will be nice and fun and still offshore. Check out my pics of Long Reef this morning at www.surfphotosofyou.com.au.
Not much
Hello Friends, Not much going on at Dee Why this morning, nor, I should imagine, elsewhere. There’s about a metre of mainly SE wind swelly stuff coming in and it’s a long wait between anything surfable. Biggest set wave face I saw was struggling to make waist high, but mostly it was much smaller than […]
Burgertown at Dee Why
Hello Friends, Anzac Day started out grey and rainy but weirdly mild. As anticipated the change last night has brought with it 2.5 metres of 11 second SSE swell. From the look of the buoy data north and south of us, the energy is confined mainly to our region. Eden and Coffs buoys are showing […]
ANZAC
Anzac day brings ugly onshores and 3ft of junky south swell somewhere amongst it. Good day to think about how lucky we are to surf when we want in an amazing country thanks to the many who died to so we could. Lets hope it never happens again. Mark – Surfboards Direct
