Hello Friends,
How’s the home front this morning? Hope you’re keeping well and washing those hands. As the pictures show, you’re missing nothing where the beach’s concerned. There was a light ESE following a weak and choppy 1.2 metre SSE bump at Dee Why this morning. A few people were in the 22C water for a paddle but they weren’t catching anything.
Checking the models, it looks as though we may have to wait until early next week for anything interesting in the way of waves – assuming of course that we’re still permitted to surf for exercise.
Go well with your day!
