Hello Friends,
A perfect beach day at Dee Why in every respect – bar one. Wind is west to WSW, skies are clear, tide is low at 0925 and the water’s clean and about 23C… unfortunately although the swell at 0500 was out of the east at about a metre at ll seconds. It just seems to be missing Dee Why. If you found waves somewhere yesterday, I’d be starting there this morning for my wave hunt. On those numbers I’d expect there to be some knee to waist high options at the magnets.
The Goat’s rolled out his usual Thursday look ahead at our surf prospects and I’m happy to see he reckons we may have the odd little surf option.
Have yourself a fine Friday everyone!
