Hello Friends,
No reason to take the board to DY this morning. The pictures tell the story of the belting SE wind and 3.6 metre 9-sec SSE swell. The Bureau says we’ll have rain through Saturday and SE wind through to Friday morning. So, I’m not too hopeful of decent surf anywhere until maybe north corners on Friday arvo…
Have a top old day everybody!
Weather Situation
A trough lies about central parts of the coast as a very strong high pressure system south of Tasmania slowly moves eastward. This is generating fresh east to southeasterly winds along the New South Wales coast, with particularly strong winds on the southern flank of the trough. As the high slips further to the southeast on Friday and the trough weakens, winds will tend northeasterly.
