Hello Friends,
Dee Why was looking pretty much hopeless this morning when I climbed aloft to grab a snap or two of the situation. There wasn’t much going on swell-wise. Only a little rime of white around the rocks at the point and nothing visible over the dunes up the beach (which means it’s high tide and really small).
Outlook for the next few days, indeed for the next week is not too exciting. If the models have it right, there will only be marginal bumps along the beaches for at least the next week. So not the brightest note to be sounding, but it is spring, so we have to put up with it.
Yours truly’s next post will be from the other side of the Pacific. It looks as though there could be some activity at Rincon and other spots the day I arrive, so who knows, maybe I’ll have a picture or two for you tomorrow…
Have a great day and go well!

Another more substantial southerly change is expected on Saturday.
