Hello Friends,
Swell faded overnight but if you were patient – and at a magnet spot, there were still a few waist plus sets to be had. It was 1.5 metres at 10 seconds from the SE and tide was coming into the 1.3m high at 1035. Wind was west and set to go sw, while picking up later.
Have a great day and if you’re wondering about the prospects be sure to check the Goat’s latest below.
Weather Situation
A trough and cold front will move northwards along the NSW coast today, bringing a fresh to strong west to southwesterly change. Over the weekend and into early next week, a ridge will move over the southern half of the coast, with a possible coastal trough developing along the northern coast, directing onshore moisture and strengthening winds along much of the NSW coast.
