Barely a bump on Saturday morning

        Hello Friends, As expected there was only a slight bump to play with this morning. The biggest waves I saw at focal points this morning were in the knee to waist high range – and very weak and slow looking. Early morning skies were very cloudy, but it wasn’t quite ready […]

Looking pretty tiny at Dee Why this morning

    Hello Friends, Nothing much showing in the corner at Dee Why or, up the beach as of 0650 this morning. Wind early was coming from the NW at only 2-3 kts. The ocean looked a little ruffled, but nothing you’d mind if there was swell – which there isn’t at Dee Why. At […]

The Goat’s Surf Forecast

Surf forecast issued Thursday 8 February 2018: Seven day outlook for Sydney: Some more warmish days ahead… See, Summer hasn’t really gone away.  And that means more Summer wave conditions. The Bureau expects the wind to be chopping and changing directions from day to day, so that won’t help bring swell. But there should be […]

Really tiny Thursday for Dee Why

    Hello Friends, I was hoping we’d have a little more activity this morning, but it seems the models were pretty much right on. Dee Why is just barely above flat this morning. You couldn’t surf the point as of 0800 and what waves there were up the beach look to be maybe ankle […]

Little lines for Wednesday morning

  Hello Friends, Sunny skies and light westerly breezes at 0730. Plus there are little south lines and from the look of the MHL data, the swell energy levels are similar to yesterday when there were occasional wobbly knee to waist plus sets from Dee Why to Longy. I took the mal out yesterday morning […]

Knee to waist on sets this morning

  Hello Friends, Swell has faded a touch overnight and this morning was around the metre mark. It was coming from the SE at about 10 seconds apart. Sets seem to be pretty few and far between (as they were yesterday morning), but when they arrive look to be in the knee to maybe waist […]

Sunny Monday with the odd little bump

Hello Friends, Lovely morning with bright blue skies and light winds at 0800. Tide was low at 0645 and will be back to a moderate 1.5 m high at 1245. Swell’s out of the SSE at around a metre and 10-seconds. Set wave faces at Dee Why looked to be in the knee to waist […]

Sunday looking sunny with small waves

  Hello Friends, A light SSW breeze was doing what it could to clean up the junky looking conditions as of 0800. Swell was around the 2 metre 9-sec mark and coming from the SE and crowd looked to be at summer strength. Size looks to be in the knee to maybe chest range and […]

Dodging showers for dodgy waves

Hello Friends, Surface conditions were choppy at 0630 and yesterday’s little south swell seems to be this morning’s littler south swell. There were a couple of people in the water near the rocks at North Narrabeen and one intrepid sort wading out at south Narra for a bodybash. Around at Dee Why the odd waist […]

Glassy, grey but not flat at 0830

          Hello Friends, Still not quite in synch with Sydney time, so another late start for you correspondent. Definitely a few small knee to maybe waist plusses at Dee Why and along the Narrabeen stretch. Wind was not a factor as of 0830 although the skies were murky and punctuated by […]
