The Goat’s Surf Forecast
Surf forecast issued Friday 8 January 2021: Seven day outlook for Sydney:
Right now it’s windy and the surf is windblown choppy rubbish. Sheltered corners? >> there’s not a lot happening.
The outlook is for the wind to ease and swing around to a Summer Noreaster, which means summer surf conditions too. Hey it’s about time we got some Summer.
There should be opportunities for waves at the right tides, right places for those who keep their eyes open.
Saturday: lower end of the 1-2 metre range East South East
Sunday: around 1 metre or so East South East
Monday: around 1 metre or less East South East
Tuesday: around 1 metre or less East
Wednesday: ditto or maybe a bit more
Thursday: 1 – 1+ metres East
Friday: somewhere in the 1-2 metre range East/North East
