No luck this end
Hello Friends, What can you say? There’s no joy about having called it when calling it means it’s flat. So, I guess that makes this a lack of surf report. Do you like wind? I can offer you a job lot of W-SW of 20-30 kts to start the day. It’s supposed to back off […]
Late arvo surprise
Hello Friends, Spent most of the day wrangling computers, then at dusk decided to get out for a walk – only to discover that there were some quite reasonable looking peaks popping up along the beach from about Marquesas down to Flight Deck. Didn’t have my binos with, so couldn’t really see what the situation […]
Good for sleeping in
Hello Friends, Very briefly… it looks like a top morning for taking your time over breakfast and the paper. There doesn’t seem to be anything in the surfable range at Dee Why. The MHL buoy is showing a weak 7-sec period, 1 metre NNE windswell but it didn’t look to me as though there was […]
Good day for voting
Hello Friends, Well, as we’ve been anticipating for some days now, Saturday starts with comparatively mild temps as the NW wind brings us some warmth from outback. Should be a good day for voting, particularly early before the temps get up to 28 as those winds pick up. Surf situation is that there pretty much […]
Surfrider polls the Pols in Warringah
Over the last week, Surfrider Foundation has asked the candidates a series of 9 questions about issues of direct concern to surfers on the Northern Beaches. If you’re a voter, you really should spend a few minutes reading what these folks have to say about dumping sewage into the sea, allowing more development in the […]
It’s pumping in Sydney
Hello Friends, It seems to be going off. I’d go to the beach at once if I could… Swell is coming from the SE now and is ranging from three to 5 metres at sea. The power setting is 11 to 13 seconds and there’s almost no wind as I write this. The Bureau […]
Fair amount of swell around
0800: not too many folk chasing these because it looks like a fair amount of work. Hello Friends, We still have loads of swell hitting Sydney’s beaches. If anything, the MHL bouy shows it has perked up a touch. It’s coming from just a whisker off dead south and is averaging around […]
South Narra pics
Wandered down to South Narra late morning. A few bods were towing into the increasingly dodgy conditions. One bloke tried paddling out, but the sweep was just too much for mere humans to get through. Once you were inside, you weren’t going out the back again without the services of an internal combustion engine and […]
A few snaps from 0900
Wandered down for a look at the beach. Surprisingly clean along the Collaroy stretch, but no one in the water. North of Collaroy the size picks up quite a bit, but at Collaroy proper the sets are rolling in and closing out or sectioning all over the place. The Kick looked the best of the […]
