Hello Friends,
Went for a splash this morning at Long Reef with lots of other fine folk. Gee it was busy out there. Quite a wait for the decent size sets and although they were into the chest to head high range, there was a lot of softness going on thanks to the high tide. Water’s still kinda cool and the gusty SW wind reinforced the point. A shout out to the amazingly friendly chap whom I brutally ran over. Such sunny cheerfulness in the face of such abject incompetence (first time I’ve done that in decades).
They switched the data back on at MHL and we can now see that the swell went south at about midnight and got up to about the 2 metre mark at close to 10 seconds. It’s now dropped back a touch in both departments, so the predicted weakening is already underway – apparently. Still, with any luck, there should be some little ones around at south swell spots again tomorrow morning. Unfortunately, the Bureau says we can expect onshores from the SE to NE from daybreak (going to the NW by evening though…)
After I got out of the water, I grabbed my camera and took a few shots for my galleries. If you end up wanting to buy one from any of my galleries, then enter the coupon code HAPPYSURF and it will take 33% off the bottom line for ya. Enjoy!
