Hello Friends,
Light shower falling when I grabbed this morning’s pics of Dee Why. High tide’s at 0910 and although it’s a 1.4m peak, when combined with the weak swell, the results are pretty feeble looking. Sets look to be waist and a bit – maybe. Swell is out of the SE and was showing 1.3 metres as of 0500. Period was 9 seconds. So basically down a foot or so in the old money on yesterday.
Wind was light WNW as this at 0730 and is expected to go southerly 10-15 kts later. Should be cloudy all day with areas of smoke haze and the odd light shower.
Have a great Friday, and check out the Goat’s forecast for the coming week’s prospects.
Weather Situation
A weakening high pressure system is situated over southeast Australia, while a cold front passes to the south. This pattern is bringing mainly southerly winds to New South Wales waters, which should ease and become more variable on the weekend as a trough develops near the coast. A low is likely to develop over the Tasman Sea at the start of the new week, bringing a return to generally southerly winds.
