Hello Friends,
It was very busy this morning at Dee Why point thanks to 2 metre, 11-sec east swell mixed with a similar size SE component. The wind was coming lightly from the WNW when I grabbed the snaps. As the day goes along it should settle to the NE, and get into the 10-15 kt range by lunchtime. Tide was filling in from the 0.5 m low at 0515 and will top out at 1.7m around 1150. Weather was on the gloomy side to start, but the chance of any rain is 10% on what is set to be a partly cloudy day.
Have a great day, and check back later for the Goat’s fresh take on our surf outlook…
