Surf forecast issued Thursday 30 November 2017: Seven day outlook for Sydney:
First of all… I said to Waz I had to do a forecast tonight… He said, So you just cut and paste?…
Cut and Paste??!!
The surf forecasts are all TG’s original, ir-responsible, work.
Hours of detailed analysis of lots of complicated stuff go into putting together the surf forecast. TG constantly strives for precision and perfection . The typing alone takes forever, using two fingers.
Waz, Read this>>>>The Goat FAQs… FYI>>>>
Now, the Surf Forecast for the first week of Summer
There should be some fun, rideable waves at the right tides (generally lower tides), at the right places, most of the coming week…
Don’t expect too much and you won’t be disappointed…
Friday: should be a little bigger than it was today –say around the mid point of the 1-2 metre range East North East
Saturday: dittoish
Sunday: same again, but maybe a tad bigger
Monday: down into the lower end of the 1-2 metre range East North East
Tuesday: ditto East
Wednesday: ditto
Thursday: and again, East North East
See if you can find where that was cut and paste from.
Any cut and paste bits are from the sources identified below….
Enjoy!

The Sky is Blue
How fascinating is that 1004 isobar below, tracking along the northern coastline, where the land meets the sea.
Winds

The Sea is too
Water temp is still bouncing around from day to day as the East Coast Current swirls down the coast and gets disturbed by days and days of Noreasters and the occasional short Southerly spell. So tomorrow, the next day or the next, might be 18 …or might be 22. You’ll just have to stick your big toe in the water to find out each day.
