The Goats Surf Forecast
Posted on December 5th, 2019 in Goat's Forecast.The Goats Surf Forecast
Surf forecast issued Thursday 5 December 2019: Seven day outlook for Sydney:
Lots of wind changes ahead according to the BoM forecast below.
That will keep surf levels down and blow smoke back in your face that you thought had gone away… Personally Im limiting my outdoor exercise to times when the smoke isnt around.
But at least youll be able to get in the surf… Its only a few years back that it was unhealthy to go in the surf because of the murky runoff from the Hawkesbury after torrential rains!…
https://www.smh.com.au/national/nsw/warragamba-dam-set-to-spill-on-monday-as-heavy-rain-falls-on-sydney-20160619-gpmomm.html
There should be some fun waves around from time to time, at the right place, right tide, right wind, right board, for the right rider!
The surf outlook in short..
Friday: around 1 metre or less at places exposed to dead South
Saturday: around 1 metre or maybe a fraction more on sets at dead South spots
Sunday: ditto
Monday: ditto
Tuesday: ditto North East
Wednesday: ditto East
Thursday: ditto dead South
Stay healthy. Have Fun!

Some warm, smokey days ahead with flip floppy winds and not much surf.
At least the water temp has gone up a little to make for some comfort…on those warm, smokey days ahead with flip floppy winds and not much surf…
Might get a spot of rain according to the Bureau..that’ll freshen the air a little together with the breeze changes
Friday: 1 metre or less North East
Saturday: around 1 metre North East then smaller
Sunday: maybe around 1 metre or so at dead South places only
Monday: probably less than 1 metre
Tuesday: 1 metre or less at dead South places only.
If the surf outlook’s the worst thing you’ve got to worry about anyway, then you’re laughing 🙂

The Goat’s Surf Forecast
Posted on November 21st, 2019 in Goat's Forecast.The Goat’s Surf Forecast
Surf forecast issued Thursday 21 November 2019: Seven day outlook for Sydney:
Sick of the bushfire smoke here… imagine what it’s like for people up the coast.
Scientific analysis of How Bushfires start in Oz … “The majority of bushfires are started either intentionally or unintentionally by people.”
https://www.abc.net.au/news/science/2019-11-20/bushfire-ignition-source-how-we-know/11701132
Being aware of the causes can help reduce the risk of fire in hot dry weather conditions.
In between staying inside out of the smoke to stay healthy, and looking at the surf, there hasn’t been much surf to miss out on.
With more flip flopping wind changes and smoke haze forecast by the Bureau, don’t expect much joy in the days ahead. At least the water’s getting to a more comfortable temperature for a cool down swim.
Friday: somewhere in the 1-2 metre range North East
Saturday: 1 metre or so North East, to be chopped around by Southerly and E/SE onshore wind
Sunday: around 1ish metres East North East then South East, and ditto re wind from S/SE
Monday: around 1 metre Eastish
Tuesday: 1 or 1+ metres North East
And, beyond that I can’t see through the pesky smoke haze at the moment…
Leave you with a couple of thoughts:

The Goat’s Surf Forecast
Posted on November 14th, 2019 in Goat's Forecast.The Goat’s Surf Forecast
Surf forecast issued Thursday 14 November 2019:
Seven day outlook for Sydney:
Waves popped up this morning at places open to dead South swell, but it was short lived and has eased back now. To be precise the swell height didn’t actually pop up, but the period did, so more energy was able to get in to receptive beaches.
The outlook, with variable winds and weather forecast, is not looking too exciting.
Let’s keep it rooly simple… cause that’s what I am>>>
Any waves are likely to get in to places open to dead South… other places aren’t likely to see anything much…
Friday – next Thursday: If it’s 1 metre ish or so dead South, be happy.
If it’s not, still be happy.

The Goat’s Surf Forecast
Posted on November 7th, 2019 in Goat's Forecast.Revised forecast issued Friday 8 November
How inconvenient Mother Nature can be… I guess it’s her prerogative to change her mind…but it is inconvenient…. sigh…
She still hasn’t decided for sure, and conditions will probably vary throughout each day, but let’s change the Weekend Outlook to>>>
Saturday: starting to come up through the day at places that get dead South swell… hard to say how much will get in to beaches as there’s a lot of SW in it, so if it gets in let’s call it somewhere in the 1-2 metre range at dead South places..
Sunday: down at first then let’s say ditto as above
Monday: could be more consistent in the 1-2 metre range dead South
And we’ll leave the rest as is…
Darned inconvenient of her at times, (some of us are busy), but you can’t tell her what to do … and ain’t Nature grand in all her glory 🙂

The Goat’s Surf Forecast
Posted on October 31st, 2019 in Goat's Forecast.The Goat’s Surf Forecast
Surf forecast issued Thursday 31 October 2019: Seven day outlook for Sydney:
Very small today, but at the right tide with the right board it’s amazing at times to watch what young/fit agile people can make of what little is available and have fun, which is after all the object of surfing.
Very smokey hazy and foggy early, then just the smoke haze, now seems to have mostly cleared away. But the Bureau expects it to be back tomorrow, then after a fresh Noreaster which should clear the smoke on Sat and Sun morning the forecast is, hey hey, for rain at times.. . Hope some falls on the fires up the coast.
The surf outlook is for Noreasters to push in a little windswell for the weekend, then a short Southeasterly period, then back to Noreatsers… Spring/Summerlike.
Friday: a tiny bit more than today, still around 1ish metres from the North East… more noticeable on the lower tides with highs being so high and full
Saturday: up more form stronger Noreast wind, into the 1-2 metre range toward the more southern parts of beaches
Sunday: somewhere in the 1-2 metre range North East
Monday: in the 1-2 metre range East North East
Tuesday: down a bit in the 1-2 metre range East South East
Wednesday: around 1 metre or less South East
Thursday: ditto North East

Surf forecast issued Thursday 25 October 2019
Seven day outlook for Sydney:
Decidedly small today, and the outlook for the week ahead is for no significant change.
But that doesn’t necessarily mean it won’t be okay for some people…. mal riders might be able to find a small wave from time to time, and it’s perfect for learners or for people who just want to sit out there in Nature and have a chat with friends…
Friday: similar to today, say around 1 metre or less Noreastish
Saturday: dittoish, or could be up ever so little bit slightly from wind
Sunday: not much, from dead South
Monday: around 1 metre at dead South palces
Tuesday: ditto
Wednesday: ditto
Thursday: ditto from North East

Surf forecast issued Thursday 17 October 2019: Seven day outlook for Sydney:
At last, a touch of Summerish weather, warm, sunny, bit windy ! but not humid… maybe the waves could be better, but better than nothing.
The outlook is as follows… just a quickie for you…
Friday: somewhere in the 1-2 metre range at places that are open to dead South swell, then easing back
Saturday: around 1ish metres from dead South
Sunday: ditto
Monday: ditto
Tuesday: ditto
Wednesday: ditto
Thursday: dittoish and Eastish
Could be ideal, or could be ordinary, depending on lots of wind variations and the tides.
How’s that for precision.
It’s the ocean, it’s nature, it doesn’t work by precision. Just embrace the vibe~~~~~~~~~~

The Goat’s Surf Forecast
Posted on October 10th, 2019 in Goat's Forecast.The Goat’s Surf Forecast
Surf forecast issued Thursday 10 October 2019:
Seven day outlook for Sydney:
Well today was very large and out of control with fierce Southerly wind pushing along at places open to the South. Tthe ocean was pretty much unpopulated except for a couple of thrill seekers who like wind, cool water and large uncrowded waves that were quite sketchy. Most people sensibly choose less exposed activities.
The weekend’s outlook is for the surf to get bigger and turn more SE. Lighter winds forecast might make the waves more attractive looking but will be strictly for the experienced at the large wave locations. If that’s not you, then stay outta the water. Know your own limitations.
Friday: easing back from today to around 2ish, 2+ metres South East , with sets
Saturday: looking like it could be around 3-4 metres, plus, South East, with sets
Sunday: around 2-3 metres South East with sets
Monday: easing back to around 2ish metres, 1-2 metres, with sets
Tuesday: down to around 1 metre or so East South East
Wednesday: dittoish
Thursday:: around 1 metre East
Me, I’m over this cold wind, cold water October weather, thanks. Bring on Summer.
