Surf forecast issued Thursday 31 August 2023: Seven day outlook for Sydney
There’s currently a High in the Bight, and a Bite in the High.. An East Coast Low seems to be spawning off the South Coast according to the BoM.. Doesn’t look like it will last long at this stage but Lows do their own thing sometimes…
Assuming it does what the BoM expects, there ‘ll be some windy days, and some waves, but the quality will depend on the winds and the swell direction, which depend in part on the Low’s movements.. Lots of variables for Mother Nature to play with.
TG thinks the Surf Outlook after today’s tinyness, should be something like this~~~~~~
Friday: starting to come up at places open to dead South. say 1, 1+, 1-2 metres or more as the forecast Southerly wind strengthens later
Saturday: around 2 ish metres or more – with wind – at dead South spots, then easing back a bit into the 1-2 metre range South East – with wind
Sunday: easing back thru the 1-2 metre range East South East, with a bit of onshore later
Monday: say 1-2 metres East
Tuesday: around 1 – 1+ metres North East
Wednesday: rising thru the 1-2 metre range South East
Thursday: around 1-2 metres at places open to dead South.
