Hello Friends,
Little waves this morning along the beach and (just barely) at Dee Why point. Sets looked to be in the chest-ish range along the beach and a bit smaller at the point. Wind was westerly at 5-6 kts as of 0800 under partly cloudy skies. Swell was 1.2 metres at 9 seconds from the SE. Tide was coming into the 1.3 m high at 1110. We could see the odd shower or two as we head to a high of 17. The wind’s set to be north by midday and the swell is expected to gradually fade as it drops back into the sub-metre range by tomorrow.
Have a great Thursday everyone!
