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

Sunny with tiny wind bump

Hello Friends,
A mild and sunny Sunday morning in Sydney but without much in the way of surf. Out at sea the bump is 0.75 metres at 12 seconds and dead south but along the beaches it looks like you’d be lucky to encounter a 0.75 m wave face. Wind was light NW and is set to stay that way for the remainder of the day.

From the look of the models, we may possibly see a modest uptick at south swell magnets around midweek. But beyond that it looks as though we’re in for more tiny to marginal conditions through next weekend.

Stay safe everyone!

 

By Order of the Federal Government, our beaches are open for exercise only – surfing, swimming, running and walking. Beaches will be closed due to unsafe conditions and or mass gatherings. All pools are closed at this time.

Please see some commonly asked questions about the beach closures.

If people are sunbaking or gathering on the beach, they will be asked to move along by our lifeguards, rangers or the police.

Due to the risk of Coronavirus and acting on direction of NSW and Federal Governments, Council has closed many public areas. View the latest updates on the evolving situation with Coronavirus (COVID-19).

In addition, it is against the law to gather with more than two people in public, except:

for members of the same household
where the gathering is essential for work or education
If you go out, stay 1.5 metres away from other people at all times.
The rules are also now enforceable and Police are issuing fines of $1000 for individuals and $5000 for companies. These are difficult circumstances and we appreciate your patience and understanding.
