Hello Friends,
Dull start to Friday, but thanks to an early SSW wind, it was relatively smooth at places showing the small E-SE swell. Said swell was 2 metres at 8 seconds from the east at 0740 and wind was 6-8 kts from the south. Tide hit a 1.5 m high at 0715 so Dee Why was looking slow, fat and around the thigh to waist plus mark for the weak swell.
Cloud should break up as the day goes along and we get to a high of 26C. The southerly should weaken toward midday and then the wind will swing NE and get into a summery 15-20 kt range.
It’ll be interesting to see what the Goat has to say about the coming week, but my take is we’re in for ankle to knee with the odd plusses, give or take, right across the coming week.
Happy Thanksgiving to my US fam and pals, and have a great Friday everyone!
