Hello Friends,
Last night when I checked the MHL data for Sydney I was stoked to see that some 12 second component in the mix. Might there be something in the surfable range this morning? Well, Huey likes his little jokes and this morning finds the latest run of data showing us back into the 7-8 sec range. The windswell’s still out of the south at a metre.
There were a few bods up the beach from the DY SLSC waiting patiently for something to come in. Sets were not frequent and when they arrived the rides appeared to be very brief (maybe 2-4 sec). Size was around the waist high mark.
Outlook is for conditions to stay like this through the day but overnight the models are showing the period increasing dramatically (to around 15 sec), so with luck, tomorrow will actually see something in the surfable range. My hope is for sets into the chest high plus range.
If the forecast plays out, Friday should be smaller than Thursday but Saturday should be back up a bit.
Have yourself a top old day!
Low tide was at 0735 and high’s at 1416.
