Sunny skies and a little smaller

Hello Friends,

Nice to see sunny conditions and a few little waves around along the northern beaches this morning. The tide is affecting it, but the swell is sticking around, albeit at a slightly diminished size and power level. Average is around 1.5 metres and it’s coming from the SSE at around 9 seconds apart.

Sets at Dee Why are pushing into the shoulder high range, but it has to be said that they do look fairly fat and slow. Pull out the fishy or the mal for best results this morning I’d say.

High tide was at 0751 and low is at 1357.

Here’s the Bureau’s call and if you scroll to the bottom of the main page you can see what the extraordinarily reliable Goat has to say about our prospects…

I’m planning to get out and about with a camera, so keep an eye on the the latest live vid report link bottom right of the main page… when it shows today’s date, you’ll know I’ve filed a progress report from my travels.
