Take a break Dee Why
Hello Friends, Less than a metre, less than 7 seconds tells you all you need to know about the wave energy level this beautiful morning in Sydney. Looks like a great day for just about anything other than surfing. Classic spring time conditions – unfortunately. And the outlook? May I refer you to that most […]
The Goat’s Long Weekend Surf Forecast
Surf forecast issued Thursday 29 September 2016: Seven day outlook for Sydney: Looks like lots of NW W N SW …hey look, that says NSW…wind ahead, which should pretty well whip the surf down into submission. But the surf won’t take that lying down and it’ll try to fight back. Only time will tell which of Mother Nature’s […]
Surprisingly clean early but marginal
Hello Friends, A few spots of rain as I climbed aloft to the crows nest this morning. Wind was out of the NNE 10-15 kts and as of 0500 the MHL buoy was showing 2 metres of 7-sec NNE wind swell. At Dee Why that meant there were surprisingly clean but very small lines coming […]
Sunny but puny for Wednesday morning
Hello Friends, Very small to flat at Dee Why and south Narrabeen this morning. That said, the MHL buoy is showing a metre of 8-sec south swell and means places like Curly or Longy possibly, have some knee high bumps. So, you have to look around and keep your expectations brutally realistic, but there should […]
I know it’s just silly but…
Hi All, Your webmaster is a political junky who will be glued to US presidential debate at 1100 this morning. Just for fun I’ve quickly whipped up a very rough and ready little game for my fellow tragics that I call #TrumpLiesBingo. You can see it at FactCheckBingo.com
Tiny Tuesday at Dee Why
Hello Friends, You’ll be doing very well to find anything into the surfable range this morning at Dee Why. It’s looking ankle to knee at the point and along the beach and the MHL buoy is showing a metre of 7 sec south bump. Not that it matters much, but tide’s dropping to the low […]
Waves for Monday morning
Hello Friends, Sunny skies over Sydney this morning and around 10-15 kts of WSW wind fanning a waist to chest plus south swell. It’s about 2 metres out at sea and was 10 seconds apart as of 0600. There were a few bods in the water at Dee Why point chasing what looked to be […]
Aw Huey, where’d the waves go
Hello Friends, Yesterday’s little pulse faded away overnight and this morning started out drizzly with light wind. The MHL data was showing a metre of 8-sec SE wind swell. As the pictures show, there really weren’t any waves to speak of at the Dee Why end of the beach. If you’re really keen, you might […]
Waves to be had on Saturday morning
Hello Friends, Sunny, light offshores and fun looking waist to chest and a bit sets at magnets this morning. According to the MHL data, swell was SE, 8 seconds apart and a touch under 2 metres. At Dee Why the point was only delivering rideable bumps sporadically, but as you moved up the beach toward […]

Down at Dee Why the 8-sec, 3 metre SSW wind swell was producing waist to chest at the point and chest to shoulder plus up the beach where the swell’s hitting more directly.Tide was low at 0700 and is coming into […]
