Hello Friends,
At last, some energy. This morning the MHL buoy shows the Sydney region doing about the best of anywhere along the coast as what looks to be a relatively brief south pulse lights the joint up. According to the data it’s averaging 3 metres out at sea on a respectable 10-11 seconds.
I watched the point and beach at Dee Why for awhile and it seemed relatively setty. Average size was around the chest high range, but I did see a couple wave faces that would’ve been overhead for most of us.
Bunches of bods in the water at the point and along the beach where the stiff and cold SW’ly is holding them up pretty nicely. It looks as though the swell should stick around for about a 24 hours. The wind is going to be a factor though. The southwesterly is going to swing south to SE this afternoon, before fading in the evening.
Get out there and enjoy!
