PICS: South Narrabeen, late Saturday afternoon
Conditions came together very nicely late Saturday afternoon, 8 Sep 2016 at south Narrabeen. It was offshore and chest plus. Better still for the lucky folks in the water, it was astoundingly uncrowded. Herewith a few samples taken from the gallery here. To see the entire gallery, click here
Why look at that, little waves
Hello Friends, Turns out I was wrong about what would happen this morning. I thought it’d be ankle to knee, but as the pics show, kiddies at Dee Why was producing waist and a bit bumps courtesy of 1.3 metres of 9-second SSE swell. It’s not refracting much (see the WRL south Narra shot), but […]
Another grey and tiny day
Hello Friends, Still quite murky when I grabbed a snap of Dee Why at 0800. At 0600 the MHL buoy was picking up a metre of 7-sec SE wind bump and as you can see it’s not translating into surf. Tide was high at 0610 and will be low at 1155. Wind was north at […]
Rest day at Dee Why
Hello Friends, The pictures tell the story – yes, we have no waves, The 6-second period SE wind waves are maybe ankle to knee, if that. Outlook is for nothing much to improve until maybe early next week. Of course I hope to be proven wrong! Busy day for me so I wish you well […]
Very low key at Dee Why this morning
Hello Friends, Swell’s faded to around the ankle to knee high level this morning at Dee Why. There might be something a little bigger at spots with optimal alignment for the 1 metre 8-second SE bump. Wind was 10-12 kts from the WSW at North Head as of 0700. Tide was high at 0430 and […]
Dramatic drop but not flat- yet
Hello Friends, Swell’s faded overnight but there are still waves to be had at magnets. Sets at Dee Why look to be knee plus this morning, but not too frequent. The point’s not doing anything though. According to the MHL buoy, there was about a metre of mainly SE 7-sec wind swell. Tide was low […]
Waves for Saturday
hello Friends, Scrappy and small at the Dee Why end of the beach, but there should be waist to chest energy at stretches of beach more receptive to the 2 metres of 8 second NE wind swell. Speaking of wind, it was 10-15 kts from the NW at 0730 but it should switch west later. […]
Little bumps and big wind a’coming
Hello Friends, You’ll want to find a NE spot that can cope with powering N-NE winds because that’s what the Bureausays Huey’s sending our way today. This morning there was scrappy NE wind bump showing at Dee Why, but it wasn’t energetic enough to look rideable. The WRL cam showed that conditions were not much […]
TG’s SURF FORECAST
TG’s Surf Forecast Surf forecast issued Thursday 10 September 2016 Bit of a mixed bag ahead but there should be some options if you take it when it’s there, or if you’re not too fussy at other times. Fresh onshore NE wind blowing right now is making small windblown waves, and sets the scene […]
