on the road, heading east
Hello Friends, Light NE breeze as of 0700 in Sydney this Monday morning. The latest MHL data shows 1.4 metres of east swell at just under 10 seconds apart. Looking at various cams around Sydney this morning reveals that those numbers are translating into smoothish, but weak and lumpy little knee to waist high plus […]

From today, an hour after the swell started filling in and a couple hours before the sky clouded over as the front arrived…
Postcards from Vicco
Hello Friends, Actually got some small waves at 13th Beach yesterday. Water about 18 too, so not bad in a springy.
Should be a little wave this morning
Hello Friends, Looking like another sunny day down here in Melbourne. Sadly the swell models earlier this week were wildly off the mark and we’ve just learned that the Bells contest is having another lay day. They could use the conditions you’re seeing in Sydney. Speaking of which, there should be a few fun waist […]
Looking micro in Sydney
Hello Friends, Greetings from country Victoria where your correspondent is currently heading south to Bells. Should get there about midday, which will be when they make the call to start the day’s heats – or not. If possible I’ll post some pictures. As for Sydney, the MHL buoy is showing 1.3 metre SSW wind bump […]

Beautiful and tiny yet again
Hello Friends, Perfect conditions again, but still only a hint of swell. The 1.84 m high tide at 0715 was swamping Dee Why, but it hardly mattered as the swell was trickling in at maybe waist high on the big ones up the beach. Nothing was going on at the point. Wind was lightly from […]
Up a touch this morning
Hello Friends, Mostly clear skies as Wednesday fired up along the beaches. Happily it looks as though we have a little more wave energy than yesterday – which isn’t saying much, because it was basically flat. A few bods scattered among the beach break peaklets as of 0700. From what I saw, I’d say it’s […]
Close to flat
Hello Friends, Another beautiful morning along the beaches without much of anything in the way of waves. There were a few people in the water along the beach at Dee Why, but waves were struggling to make the knee high mark. Needless to say, the point wasn’t doing anything. Winds were light as we came […]
You’d have to be keen
Hello Friends, A beautiful morning in every respect save one. If you are super keen and have something very floaty in your surf toy collection, you might be able to get an ankle to knee high bump at places that like the ESE direction of the 10-sec sub-one metre swell. We’re expecting a partly cloudy […]
