"Stay happy and you'll be perfectly fine" - Jack Norris

The waiting game again


Hello Friends,

With only 1.5 m of 7-second period south swell, there really is not much going on at Dee Why – and I’d guess other spots will be the same along the Sydney coast. There might possibly be a little bump at really exposed spots, but I reckon anything above knee high would be a real find.

To the extent it matters, tide is low at 0850 and high at 1520. There’s not much of a swing between the two either.

There’s a small hope that tomorrow could see a little uptick in energy levels, but it doesn’t look as though the improvement will be too dramatic. My hope is for the odd waist high plus option on Tuesday morning.

Outlook for the remainder of the week is as it has been, namely small to near flat. As of this morning’s run of the swell modelling, tomorrow seems to be the best option over the coming 5 days or so.

Have yourself a great Monday!
