The Goat’s Surf Forecast

Surf forecast issued Thursday 2 November 2023: Seven day outlook for Sydney

Swell this arvo was about 1.478 metres, going down, from due South, with a period of approximately 8.52 seconds, going down.

Clear blue sky this Thursday evening – hopefully might stick around for the morning’s light winds and small conditions

But then, the Bureau expects some showers over the weekend with onshore winds, making the weekend surf quality outlook pretty ordinary.

And after that, the outlook is for more chopping and changing wind and weather, and small surf through the week.

Friday: small if anything leftovers at first, then about 1 metre or so from the East with the wind behind it

Saturday: around 1 metre or so at places open to dead South

Sunday: ditto

Monday: dittoish getting smaller

Tuesday: about 1 metre orless South East

Wednesday: about 1 metre or so East South East

Thursday: ditto South East

Stay positive and you might get lucky ~~~

Have fun!
