Hello Friends,
Out for a walk and coming back through Dee Why at low tide, got a picture of the impressive quantity of seaweed on the beach in the south corner. No surf btw. 2020 ends with a whimper.
10 kts of SSE wind keeping the tiny 7-second 1 metre SSE wind bump junky and unappetizing. There were a few people bobbing around at Kiddies, but it was maybe knee high on the gutless sets, so eminently missable.
The Goat should roll out his New Year forecast later today, so I’m hoping he’ll see something a little more attractive than I am.
Helluva year everybody. Here’s hoping ’21 will have lots of memorable surf sessions and that things will improve rapidly on the virus front. Stay safe, take care and mask up!
Weather Situation
A low pressure trough along the northern New South Wales coast is weakening, while a weak high lies over the southern Tasman Sea. This high is expected to decay during Wednesday, although another high should extend a ridge across from the west in its wake. Little change to this pattern is expected for the following days, with northeast to southeasterly winds remaining dominant along the New South Wales coast.
