Late morning at Dee Why point (vid)
South wind came up by the time I got out of the water and back to the car to grab the camera… Kinda messed up the edit on this one (learning a new application), but you get the idea if you watch to the end!
Clean looking start to the day
Hello Friends, Beautiful start to the day. Light offshore wind, mostly clear skies and a small but clean looking south line pulsing in. The MHL buoy data tells us it was south, 2 metres at 9 seconds as of 0500. Tide was dropping to the low at 0850 and, as you might expect, the point […]
A few piccies for you
1000 UPDATE: Perfect conditions wind wise and the 80% chance of rain doesn’t look like applying this morning. North Steyne to Queenscliff was knee to chest and not super consistent, but unlike Curly and Dee Why, it actually had a few banks. Dee Why beach was a riot of pretty shutdowns and the point was […]
Smaller but not flat
Hello Friends, Light westerly winds and 1.7m of SSE swell at 11 seconds under heavy overcast (80% chance of showers today). A solid crew at the point again this morning chasing sets with chest high wave faces. I didn’t see any bomb sets, but from where people were sitting, I reckon there might be some […]
Murky conditions but swell continues
Hello Friends, According to the latest data from the MHL buoy at 0400, the swell was close to 2 metres from the SSE at 9 seconds apart. The decrease in average period over the last 24 hours means that waves are distinctly smaller than this time yesterday. As of 0715, wind was coming from the […]
Big Monday morning at Dee Why
Hello Friends, Huey didn’t get the memo obviously. It was supposed to be dropping, but instead from late yesterday both the period and size have ramped upward pretty sharply. At 0500, the MHL buoy showed swell was out of the SSE at 3 metres with a 13 second average period. At 0740 when I checked […]
Sunday and the swell hasn’t given up
Hello Friends, Our amazing run of swell continued into Sunday morning. At 0500 it was SE and close to 2 metres at 11 seconds. When I checked at 0730 wave faces at the point were into the head and a bit range (see pics) on the sets. The crowd was on it of course. Yesterday […]
A clip of the point around midday Saturday
Went for a surf amongst the murderous morning shutdowns at Dee Why and got out about the time the wind was coming into play. Unlike the beach, pretty much every wave at the point was rideable – but for one minor issue…
How it looked this morning at Dee Why
Kinda lully but there were some thumping sets in the mix. Here’s a quick sweep of the Dee Why scene at about 0700 Saturday morning.
Pumping Saturday morning
Hello Friends, Clean and solid conditions at SE magnet spots as of 0700 this morning. Set wave faces were head and a bit at the exposed spots. There’s some long period component in the mix (oomph as the Goat would say), so this is not a morning for beginners to just jump in the water […]
