The Goat’s Surf Forecast

Surf forecast issued Thursday 24 January 2019:

Seven day outlook for Sydney:

Nothing too exciting happening, now or through the week ahead.

Today there’s about 1 metre or so of sort of waves from the South East that are getting into places that are open to it, but it’s messy with the wind behind it.

Friday: something similar, though with a light Noreaster..could be ok for the kids at the right tide

Saturday: ever so slightly bigger say 1-1+ metres North East, but with SE wind

Sunday: much the same

Monday: about the same but with light winds

Tuesday: similar, wind turning NE

Wednesday: dittoish

Thursday: and again.

Looks like it’ll be pot luck if you find a suitable wave at the right place, right tide.

Have a good one and have a Happy Australia Day Long Weekend!
