New pulse showing early


Hello Friends,

Yesterday the Bureau was predicting a swell arrival of around midday, but from the look of the beach at Dee Why, the forerunner sets are already showing up. According to the MHL buoy data, it’s straight south at about 2.5 metres with an average period a touch under 9 seconds.

The hardy crew in the water at Dee Why beach were hanging about waiting for sets with wave faces into the head high range on take off. Wind was out of the west and air temps at 0800 were around the 10 degree mark. So, wind chill ought to be rather, well, chilly.

This morning’s swell forecasts are calling for tomorrow to be peak day and then for the energy levels to fade back over Thursday and into Friday.

Yours truly is going to head off on a quick midweek surfari up the coast, so, connections permitting, expect to hear something on that front later…

Go well with your Tuesday!

Tides: H @1740, L @1320
