Hello Friends,
Light WSW breezes fanning a fading SSE swell this morning. Out at sea swell was 1.8m at 8 seconds from 162° and that was translating into shoulder high sets at the best exposures. Tide was coming in to the high at 1120, but at least where Dee Why was concerned, it was almost as though we had a low tide because of the way most sets were shutting down. The bank just north of the club would look good as a set approached, but in every case I saw over the course of 10 minutes or so, they were unmakeable. The point was really only for die-hard fans as it was way less consistent and smaller and weaker looking. We’re set for a partly cloudy day with a high of 25C with water on 24C, oh, and good news, Beachwatch is now saying that pollution is unlikely at most beaches.
Go well everyone!
