Postcards from the mid-north Coast
Just some happy snaps to share from this morning…
Hopeful start at Crescent
Hello Friends, Cold but beautiful morning on the mid-north coast. Swell still mostly missing the point at Crescent, but there should be energy elsewhere, so going for a look around shortly with, I hope, pics to follow later.
Postcards from Crescent Head
It may be 2.8 metres at 12 seconds out at sea, but coming from 160 degrees means that the swell is pushing past the point at Crescent Head. It’s quite annoying to see a solid overhead set at Pebbly Beach, but when it gets to the top of the point it just fats out and […]
Down but definitely not out
Hello Friends, Just a couple of pics for now… check back this afternoon to see how my surfari has gone…
It’s here
Hello Friends, At 0500 the swell was 4 metres and coming from the S-SSE (160°) at 11 seconds apart. More words and pics later, just wanted to get these up now… Low tide 0.63@0915, high 1.48@1600 Weather Situation A complex low pressure system lies over the southern Tasman Sea, while a high pressure system […]
Manly snaps
Not much at the Bower or South Steyne but Queenscliff was chest to head plus on the bombs at low tide. Mostly shutting down with rights much less likely to be makeable.
Back to flat – for now
Hello Friends, You might want to do all your sunny day activities this morning, because there’s a 70% chance of showers later. Unfortunately yesterday morning’s early bump in energy faded away rapidly and by dusk it was flat again. As you can see from the pics, it was still flat as of 0800. But by […]
Hooray! Waves to be found
Hello Friends, Good news, against expectations, we have little waves at magnet spots this morning. It’s not very consistent, but when the sets turn up, the wave faces are into the chest to shoulder high range. That said, there were long stretches at less optimally aligned beaches (looking at you south Narra) that were near […]
When will it come up
Hello Friends, Another sunny morning with light westerly winds but no real sign of surf at Dee Why. There was a tiny line coming in, so one can dream of improvement. The Bureau says the swell should come up offshore. So, will that improve our prospects later today? I’m ever hopeful, but realistically I’ll be […]
The Goat’s Surf Forecast
Surf Forecast issued Thursday 16 August 2018: Seven day outlook for Sydney: Couple of interesting features this week.. 1 looks like there might be some waves on the horizon for next week… outta control at first, naturally, but it should settle down a bit after that, and 2 check out the Bureau’s cool new sea […]
