The Goat’s Surf Forecast

Surf forecast issued Thursday 28 January 2016: Eight day outlook for Sydney:

More hot days, more showers and cloudiness, so more humidity, but more waves to keep cool in…

Just about seen the last of TC Victor’s occasional thumpers, but although it’ll be gradually going down, there should still be waves all week.

Friday: 1-2 metres East

Saturday Sunday: going down in the 1-2 metre range East

Monday Tuesday Wednesday: about 1 metre or so East

Thursday Friday: 1 metre or less East.

Water temp is a pleasant 24 degrees.  The artistic whiteish dab from the satellite image is a current of 28 degree water offshore>>>
