Hello Friends,
Still a few head plus sets at Dee Why this morning, but the biggest ones were along the beach where it was shutting down mercilessly. It can make for some nice pictures, but in reality most rides were a couple of turns at best. The point was busy and less consistent, however, if you were in the spot much fun could be had. Out at sea, the swell was 2 metres at 10 seconds from the south while wind was out of the WNW at 6-8 kts as of 1000. First tide of the daylight hours is the 1100 high. Weather should stay sunny and mild and wind shouldn’t change much. Opportunities all day from the look of it. Water’s clean and sitting on 20C.
If you can’t make it to the beach today, you should still have a shot again tomorrow…
Go well!
Weather Situation
Winds are easing as a strong high pressure system over South Australia extends a ridge towards New South Wales. The high is expected move across the state over the coming days and becoming the dominant influence for the first half of the week. A strong cold front is forecast to cross the state between Thursday and Friday, with strengthening northwest winds ahead of its passage. A deep low pressure system may form off the South Coast once the cold front enters the coastal waters on Friday morning, and this may bring vigorous south to southwesterly winds and hazardous surf conditions with large and powerful waves across the coast through Friday and Saturday.
