Rainy start to Tuesday

Hello Friends,

It’s all not happening this morning. Had a look at Curly, Dee Why and Northy and all up I spotted a total of four people in the water. One each at Northy and Curly and the other two at Dee Why centre. This is not surprising however. The combination of grey, periodically rainy, skies and a gutless, tiny SSE windswell being worked over by onshores does not make for the most attractive incentive to get wet.

The outlook for the remainder of the day is pretty much for more of the same. Tomorrow isn’t looking a lot better, although there is some slight hope that as the wind goes around to the NE in the late afternoon that we might get something of interest in the afternoon at north corners.

Go well with plans today and keep on smilin’!

TIDES: H @0625, L @1315

Weather Situation

A high east of Tasmania is moving slowly east, extending a ridge along the New South Wales coast, while a low pressure trough is situated off the northern coast. During today the high is expected to move further east, and the coastal trough should weaken. The approach of a cold front from the Southern Ocean towards the end of the week is likely to bring a southerly change to much of the coast.

Forecast for Tuesday until midnight

Winds: Easterly about 15 knots. Seas: 1 to 1.5 metres. Swell: Southeasterly about 2 metres. Isolated thunderstorms offshore late this evening.

Forecast for Thursday

Winds: Northerly 10 to 15 knots increasing to 15 to 20 knots during the morning then tending north to northeasterly 10 to 15 knots during the afternoon. Seas: Up to 1.5 metres. Swell: Easterly about 2 metres. The chance of thunderstorms offshore, extending throughout from midday.
