The Goats Surf Forecast
Surf forecast issued Thursday 5 December 2019: Seven day outlook for Sydney:
Lots of wind changes ahead according to the BoM forecast below.
That will keep surf levels down and blow smoke back in your face that you thought had gone away… Personally Im limiting my outdoor exercise to times when the smoke isnt around.
But at least youll be able to get in the surf… Its only a few years back that it was unhealthy to go in the surf because of the murky runoff from the Hawkesbury after torrential rains!…

There should be some fun waves around from time to time, at the right place, right tide, right wind, right board, for the right rider!
The surf outlook in short..
Friday: around 1 metre or less at places exposed to dead South
Saturday: around 1 metre or maybe a fraction more on sets at dead South spots
Sunday: ditto
Monday: ditto
Tuesday: ditto North East
Wednesday: ditto East
Thursday: ditto dead South
Stay healthy. Have Fun!
