Hello Friends,
Light NW wind early and a 1.6 metre, 8-sec NE wind swell was producing somewhat choppy and bumpy chest to shoulder high sets at Dee Why. Wind is expected to swing onshore as the day goes along however it shouldn’t be too strong. Ocean’s on 25C too. Weather should be partly cloudy with our next high tide arriving at 1220. All and all, not terrible.
Weather Situation
A high pressure system over the southern Tasman Sea is slowly moving east, maintaining fresh southeast to northeasterly winds along the New South Wales coast. On Saturday, northeasterly winds are expected to strengthen ahead of a trough which will bring a southerly change to the southern half of the state on Sunday. After this, northeasterly winds will redevelop as the trough weakens and a ridge of high pressure develops.
