Hello Friends,
Flat to nearly flat this morning along the Manly to Dee Why stretch. Best exposure I saw was at south Curly which, as you can see, was somewhat less than inspiring. For the record the swell at sea was dead south and 1.6 m at just 5 seconds. Wind was out of the SSW at 8-14 kts when I took these snaps.
So, what are our prospects you ask? Well the ultra reliable Goat has considered the portents, cast the runes and examined the entrails on your behalf. And, as always I commend his wisdom to you.
Go well one and all!
Weather Situation
A weak southerly wind change has extended north to about the Hunter coast overnight, but will weaken today as a high over the southern Tasman Sea strengthens the ridge along the coast. Another trough is expected to affect the southern half of the coast during Sunday and Monday.
