Hello Friends,
Such a beautiful start to Saturday morning. Comparatively mild, steady but not silly offshores and great swathes of brilliant blue skies.Sadly though from the south coast to the Queensland border it looks to be flat as a tack. There is absolutely no hope whatsoever of catching anything this morning, or indeed today.
If you were hoping to get a surf in at some point on the long weekend, it’s not looking good. Maybe, possibly you might get a wee little bump on Monday – but that’s being incredibly hopeful given the outlook.
No, right now it looks as though we’ll be cooling our heels until late in the coming week.
So turn your thoughts to non-surfing matters and have yourself a top old weekend!
Weather Situation
Vigorous westerly winds along the New South Wales coast will gradually ease during Saturday as a deep low pressure system near Tasmania moves east-southeast and weaken. Winds will turn northerly during Sunday and increase ahead of a cold front expected to bring another gusty westerly change later on Monday.
