Hello Friends,
The short version? Get out there if you know what you’re doing, and watch if you don’t. Swell energy is strongest from the east this morning, but there’s SE component still in the mix. Average period is around the 10 sec mark, but with some longer period energy in the mix to keep things interesting. Wind is offshore and wave faces at Dee Why were easily overhead on the bigger ones at Dee Why. There were waves at both the point and along the beach and given the swell settings, I reckon there’ll be juicy options all over the place.
Tide’s high at 0900 and then drops back to low about 1440.
Weather forecast is sunny all day. And I reckon that’ll go for the waves as well.
I went shooting yesterday and I reckon I’ll do it again today…

Weather Situation
A complex low pressure system near New Zealand is moving southeast and weakening as a strong high pressure system moves over southeastern Australia extending a ridge across the southern and central Tasman Sea. The high is expected to move very slowly east over the next few days strengthening the ridge across the Tasman Sea before moving east of Tasmania and further toward New Zealand later on Monday, whilst maintaining the ridge to the northwest.
