Hello Friends,
Definitely a few waves around this morning at south spots. North Steyne for instance, was really lighting up on sets. Out at sea, the swell is close to 2 metres at 12 seconds from 147°.
Waves at Freshy and Curly and Dee Why too.
Weather Situation
A west to southwesterly change following a cold front has moved through most coastal waters, and is expected to reach the Queensland border this morning. From Friday, a front associated with a low pressure system near New Zealand will bring strong to gale force southerly winds along the New South Wales coast. As the low deepens, a powerful southerly swell is expected to generate hazardous and damaging surf conditions across all waters, extending through the weekend.
