Hello Friends,
As foretold by the forecast models, this morning sees only tiny waves at Dee Why. It’s school holiday time, but there wasn’t anyone in the water at the point as of 0800. Yesterday there would’ve been 20 at least. It looks as though there might be some knee to thigh sets up the beach toward the Pole. Maybe.
The MHL buoy data from 0500 was showing a metre of 10-sec ESE swell, so I’d guess that a bit of hunting around at the optimum tide should turn up a waist high wet or two.
Outlook is for a sunny and mild day ahead. The wind was straight north and light as I wrote this, but the Bureau says it’ll go around to the NW soon and get into the 15-25 kt range.
The models are all in agreement that we haven’t much to look forward to until maybe early next week. Go to the back up plan for exercise in the meantime.
Have yourself a top old Tuesday everyone!
