Hello Friends,
Nothing of interest for surfers this morning between Dee Why and North Narrabeen (and every where else no doubt). 10-15 kts of ESE wind going when I checked around 0815. Waves were in the waist to chest high range at Long Reef but smaller everywhere else.
Outlook is for more showers today – and for the weekend.
And, speaking of outlooks, the Goat is back! You’ll find his expert prognostications for the week ahead, right here.
