Hello Friends,
You know, I could’ve sworn I saw something resembling a wave at Dee Why just now. A guy on a kayak was paddling out as it arrived. He flicked around, gave it a couple strokes and sort of went over with the white water. Okay, nothing amazing, but it was better than anything I’ve seen along that particular stretch for quite some time. Naturally, I was keen to see if it was a fluke or if the MHL buoy was showing anything.
Sure enough, the main direction has moved more to the SSE and while it’s still around the metre mark, for the first time in days, the average period is around 9 seconds. On that basis alone, I’d think there might be some waist high sets (like the one I snapped at Dee Why) at spots with good exposure to the SE.
The wind outlook is good for this morning too. The Bureau’s calling for NW 5-10kts, swinging to the NE and getting up to 13-18 kts later.
And judging from the rest of the data on the MHL page, the Sydney region has the best average periods in NSW. I’ve been staring at computer screens too much lately (working on my mag and some fun RealSurf tweaks), so I think I’ll have a bit of a wander along the beach later. Maybe even get you a few pictures while I’m about it.
Have yourself a top old day!
