The Goat’s Surf Forecast
Surf forecast issued Thursday 6 August 2020: Seven day outlook for Sydney:
Good news ! for those who like some solid waves. It looks like there’ll be plenty of wind and wave direction changes too and variety is the spice of life.
But it may turn out not to be all that pleasant, with lots of Lows on the map swirling around, to end up who knows where. The weather forecast has changed for tomorrow since yesterday, with rain now expected later in the day. So don’t be surprised if the weather and the wave outlooks change over coming days.
At present the surf outlook is
Friday: around 2ish metres, 2+ maybe South East
Saturday: ditto East
Sunday: upper end of the 1-2 metre range Eastish
Monday: dittoish
Tuesday: 3ish metres South East
Wednesday: 2ish metres East
Thursday: in the 1-2 metre range East
Stay safe and Have Fun in and out of the water.
