The Goat’s Surf Forecast
Surf forecast issued Thursday 17 November 2022: Seven day outlook for Sydney
Hum along….
How will the waves look in the days ahead?~~~
How many metres and where to ‘ll they head?~~~
How many rides might people then get~~~~
Before they fall exhausted in their beeeddd?~~~~~~~~
The answer my friend is blowin’ in the wind …
the answer is blowin’ in the wind~~~~~~~
TG knows it’s hard to believe, but he said he just made those words up!
That’s what the surf outlook will largely depend on, in the face of, or being pushed along by the various winds that are forecast by the Bureau for every day in the days ahead this week… (see weather forecast below)
Surf outlook
Friday: down a bit from the size today, still messy outside sheltered coners, say around 2 ish or more metres at dead South spots
Saturday: down more into the 1-2 metre range South East
Sunday: down more, around 1 ish or 1+ metres North East
Monday: blown down to maybe 1 or less metres or even flat
Tuesday: strating to come up from the South, say into the 1-2 metre range at dead South spots
Wednesday: around 1- 1+ metres at places open to dead South
Thursday: up a bit into the 1-2 metre rnage dead South spots.
So go with the flow~~~~~ Bend like the reed grasshopper and just have as good a time as you can.
