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

 

 

Hello Friends,

Most interesting thing going on at Dee Why this morning was a black swan cruising in the lagoon. That’s a very rare sight these days, so it’s good to see that somehow they’re managing to cling on in our urban landscape. The waves? Nup. Nothing above knee high that I could see. The MHL buoy off Sydney is showing about a metre from the south with an average period of 9 seconds. That could possibly produce something catchable at south spots, but I wouldn’t be taking my high performance board this morning.

Tide’s high at 0845 and will be low at 1515. It should be around 24 and sunny with light winds from the north.

It looks as though we’ll get a mixed southerly and east to NE pulse on Friday and Saturday, but we’ll have to deal with steady onshores. I’d be backing the early on Saturday as the high point for the week at this stage.

Keep on smilin’!
