Hello Friends,
Flat good and proper folks. Surfing’s not a thing in Dee Why or Sydney today. And from the look of the forecast models, it’s going to stay this way well into next week.
Sorry not to have gladder tidings, but so it goes. Here’s hoping the east pulse on Friday showing on at least one of the models turns out to be the real thing.
Go well, stay safe and have fun with your Sunday.
