Hello Friends,
The mild mornings are returning as we head into Spring. Skies were mostly clear and the breeze was a light 7-9 kts as yours truly pointed the camera toward Dee Why. It was 1.3 metres at 7 seconds apart from 132 degrees – so basically light chop on a day that is set to reach 29C.
There’s no real prospect of an improvement to surf prospects that I can see for today. If you’re desperate you might get a weak knee high bomb set at a well aligned spot, but there’s so little energy around, you’ll be doing well to catch anything.
Here’s hoping the Goat spots something hopeful when he casts the runes later today.
Go well, take the mask with you for those times you aren’t able to maintain distance.
