Hello Friends,
The pictures tell the story. It’s sunny, rapidly warming up and the ocean is just a notch above lake-like flatness. There were a few folks punting around on SUPs at Dee Why this morning and I’m pretty sure I saw one rider get a knee high thing. But the MHL data is showing less than a metre of 7-sec east wind bump.
Wind was lightly offshore when I grabbed the pics but it’s due to go N-NE later. Tide’s coming into a 1.7m high at 1040.
Should get to 30-ish today.
And the outlook? Well I’d like to refer you to the Goat’s latest prognostications.
