Late afternoon Monday
A few snaps to show how the swell was looking as it arrived… (not great really)
East Coast Low doing its thing
Hello Friends, It’s here. At first light, the offshore buoys were seeing 5 metres of 12 second swell coming in from 171° (S by SSE). Wind was WSW at 13-18 kts at the North Head weather station, but down at Wattamolla it was hammering in at 33-40 kts. Skies were partly cloudy and the showery […]
Tiny town tiddlers

Surface conditions were nice and smooth thanks to 10 kts of NNW breeze and out at sea the waverider buoys were detecting just under a metre of 9-second energy from 136°. […]
Saturday tiny style

Swell early but wind the problem
Hello Friends, Hey! I thought it’d be bigger this morning, especially since last night the Eden buoy was showing 5 metres on peaks. What we had off Sydney as of 0500 was 2 metres of 10-sec period SE on average with peak heights of 3 metres. Unfortunately, the NE’r was into it from the get-go, […]
Little waves caught at Longy
Had not intended to get wet this morning, but it ended up happening. It’s not my fault I tell you. I was just checking it out and there was this guy I know from, from, er, the industry (I think he was supposed to be at work too) and he said ‘aw c’mon, you gotta […]
