Hello Friends,
A sunny start to Friday with light NNW wind texturing the ocean – and heaps of swell at spots like Dee Why. As of 0600, the MHL buoy was seeing 2 metres of 14-second energy from the SSE (156°). The tide hit low at 0830 and will hit the moderate 1.41 m high at 1450. The Bureau expects the swell to come around to the NE as the day goes along. The wind’s going to stay N-NW and pick up too, so this morning’s likely to be your best shot for quality conditions.
Beachwatch reports clean conditions and a water temp sitting on 19C.
And the outlook you say? Ah, well, the mighty Goat has spoken, so gaze upon his words of wisdom here.
Go well, know your limits and take the mask when you go out.
