Surf forecast issued Thursday 19 January 2017: Seven day outlook for Sydney:
A dull day today (just in the sky, not in the News) after the Southerly ripped through yesterday. The Southerly brought rapid and welcome relief from the hot weather and some waves as well, which have started to go down already as the wind has turned East North East/North East.
For the week ahead … lots of wind changes and lots of wave changes ~~ and a State Premier and a US President change or two.
Friday: down at first from today, say around the low end of the 1-2 metre range at places that get dead South swell… coming up later
Saturday: coming up more to around say 2-2+ metres at places that are open to dead South swell – with southerly wind… maybe just a little might get into protected corners
Sunday: down a little, but sets still around 2 metres or so at dead South places
Monday: in the 1-2 metre range East South East (with a light Noreaster forecast)
Tuesday: down in the low end of the 1-2 metre range East North East
Wednesday: up again.. 2 or so metres at dead South spots only
Thursday: down in the 1-2 metre range dead South
