Hello Friends,
Sorry kids. No surfin’ for you this gorgeous spring morning in Sydney. The ocean is a lake. Best thing about the conditions are that they can only improve from here. The Bureau says it might bump up a touch at south magnets this afternoon, but I wouldn’t be expecting much above ankle to thigh at the best exposures.
The Goat will roll out his weekend and week ahead forecast thoughts later this afternoon, so here’s hoping he’ll spot something in the way of an improvement during the weekend…
Go well and take the mask for enclosed spaces – remember, the pandemic started with a single case.
