"Stay happy and you'll be perfectly fine" - Jack Norris

Sunny, clean and small

Hello Friends,

Knee high little lines were coming into Dee Why at 0700 this morning. Skies were clear and wind was about 8-9 kts. Swell has dropped about 30cm from yesterday’s peak of 1.5 metres, but period is still around the same 11 seconds and direction is still SE. Tide was low at 0510 and is currently heading toward a swampy 1.8 m high at 1135. Weather should continue sunny as we reach a high of 27C along the coast. Ocean continues to be 18C.

We’ll see what the Goat thinks later today, but my quick take is that size will not improve much in the near term. If anything, it could be a touch smaller tomorrow. So, maybe jump in this morning with your favourite small wave toy.

Have a top old Thursday everyone!
