Hello Friends,
Light offshores, a metre of 11-sec SSE swell and clear skies greeted early risers at Dee Why. Tide was dropping to the low at 0945 and there were occasional waist high lines at the point and up the beach. Only a couple people on the point and I didn’t catch sight of anyone along the beach. The workers and the students are back to their respective occupations and obligations I guess.
Tomorrow should see the energy levels sticking around at about the same intensity, but it could more wind-affected as it goes a bit onshore from the south. Thursday might be a touch bigger with lighter winds. It then looks as though waves will bumble around at more or less the same knee to waist high levels until early next week when the models are currently pointing toward another solid-ish east pulse. Unfortunately the same models are predicting SE wind with it…
Have yourself a top old Tuesday one and all and keep on smilin’!
Weather Situation
A strong high pressure system lies over the Tasman Sea with a ridge over New South Wales. A cold front crossing the Southern Ocean is expected to bring a southerly change to the southern half of the coast today and the remainder early Wednesday. The ridge of high pressure will re-establish itself over the north during Wednesday. The next cold front is expected along the coast on Saturday.
