The Goat’s Surf Forecast

Surf forecast issued Thursday 14 February 2019: Seven day outlook for Sydney:

While you’ve been enjoying? warm weather in Sydney I’ve been enduring cold winds coming up from Antarctica. To make matters worse the winds didn’t even bring up any surf where I’ve been.

Between the cold air, the cold water, and the .. surf… I haven’t seen any reason to take my board off the car, so far.  Maybe tomorrow?

But you don’t care about that do you?

And hey… In Victoria I’ve seen so many Goat’s Cheese this, Goat’s Cafe that, Goat’s Meat !!??!!… thank goodness I’m back in NSW !(?)

So in Sydney, I don’t think I’ve missed much surf from what I’ve been told.

Friday: easing back into the lower end of the 1-2 metre range South East

Saturday:around 1 metre or so or possibly less South East

Sunday: 1 metre or so East

Monday:coming up a little in the 1-2 metre range Eastish

Tuesday: coming up at places open the dead South after a change, say in the 1-2 metre range at those places

Wednesday: dittoish

Thursday: down to around 1 metre or so East South East.

Have a good one!
