Swell and north wind for Sydney

Hello Friends,

Swell’s only backed off a touch. As of 0400 it was 2 metres and coming from the SE at 10 seconds apart. Wind was north 7-10 kts at 0540. The Bureau expects it to pick up though and be 15-25kts later, so you can probably write off anything in the southern corners once that happens. North ends though could be a possibility. Tide’s low at 0715, so there should be a little extra push from that. However, the swell energy levels are expected to decrease through the day and by tomorrow it could be pretty small, if not flat.
Outlook from what I can see is for at least a couple of days of short period smallness and then maybe a return to waist to chest at south magnets for the end of the week…
We’re seeing slightly bigger but still soft and short period dribble in southern SB and northern Ventura counties. Another notch or so bigger if you get south of LA and into Orange county. Herewith a pair of postcards…
