Hello Friends,
Sort of an interesting day for those of us who enjoy watching weather – breezy, the odd shower, the occasional sunbeam. But, sadly, where the surf’s concerned, it’s conforming to the forecasts.
Once again, the MHL Sydney buoy is reporting average swell height at sea of about a metre from the SE. It’s strictly windswell too, as the period is just a choppy 6 seconds. The only bright(ish) spot I can see in the data is a very slight uptick in the power setting on the Byron buoy. I’m reaching here though, because it’s only a second or so! But maybe it’s the first hint of the inbound east swell…
The forecasts continue to anticipate the development of pretty serious amounts of swell along the east coast. And, if the models are to be believed, it should last for 3 or 4 days or even longer. Sadly, it also looks as though we’re going to have pretty strong E-SE winds over the coming days as well, so the surf options are probably going to be limited to the very protected south corners.
Could be interesting…
Go well with your Wednesday plans!
