Hello Friends,
Another click down in the energy levels this morning at Dee Why, but there was a little wave at the point and plenty of folk along the beach. If you go expecting knee with the odd waist, you shouldn’t be disappointed. Wind was light from the north but it’ll come around to the NE later as it gets into the 10-15 kt range.
Tide was low at 0630 and will be high at 1240. Weather should be sunny and 29 along the beaches.
This morning’s swell modelling is pointing toward more or less the same settings through mid-week. Depending on who’s doing the predicting, some are predicting a south pulse from around Wednesday as the wind swings to the south and slings some shortish period windswell at us. Right now Wed-Thr looks like protected corners only. The Bureau’s models show Friday being offshore (is autumn finally here?)
Have a top Sunday everyone!
