Hello Friends,
Not really much of anything happening at Dee Why this morning. Worth taking the SUP for a paddle maybe, but the faint remnant NE wind swell is pretty feeble and you’d almost certainly do a bit better a NE spot before the wind starts to smash it up later. High tide’s at 1040 and wind is due to be 15-20 kts from the south by around that point.
Outlook for tomorrow is NE wind and a fading out little easterly wind swell. Marginal at the best spots I’d guess.
Boxing day forecast shows a south change of 20-30 kts during the day, but there might possibly be a little something before the change at spots that are favourable to E-NE wind swell.
Beyond that, well, we’ll see what the Goat thinks, but right now it’s looking like a blown out weekend with the possibility of fun conditions for Monday at NE spots.
Go well with your day!
from around 0745…
