Hello Friends,
There’s still a metre of 10 seconds east bump out at sea, but it doesn’t look much above ankle to knee high at Dee Why on what is another magnificent morning along the beaches. As the picture shows, the carparks were packing up before 0900 as we head to a high of 27C (UV will be high from 0920 to 1550).
Surf prospects look pretty ordinary across the front half of the week. There’s a hope for a little bump at east swell magnets on Thursday (Wavewatch) or Friday (ECM).
Here’s hoping!
Have a top old Sunday and take the mask for when you can’t maintain safe distance because there are still new cases of COVID-19 appearing every day (18 in NSW yesterday).
