"Stay happy and you'll be perfectly fine" - Jack Norris

Beautiful morning but waves not so much

Hello Friends,

Corker of a day out there, but no hint of a wave that I can see. Modelling continues to offer only slight hope for any improvement – and only then from about mid-week. As always I hope to be found unduly pessimistic about the prospects. But I gotta call it as I see it too. So keep on smilin’, our waves will return!

Perfect conditions but for one crucial thing

Weather Situation

A high pressure system over southeast Australia is directing southeast to northeasterly winds onto the New South Wales coast today. This high is drifting slowly east, and will move over the Tasman Sea by today, where it should remain until mid-week. The next trough and southerly change looks set to affect the coast during the second half of the week, although its movement is currently quite uncertain.
