Hello Friends,
Still very small and weak on the surf front this Friday morning. The wind has been coming lightly (5-6 kts) from the WNW since 0600 and swell at sea as of 0500 was 1.2 metres from the NE at just 6 seconds apart. As the pictures show, that means wave faces in the knee to maybe waist-high range at Dee Why. Tide was high at 0710 and will be back to low at 1315. Weather should be partly cloudy with a high of 27 and the chance of a shower at 30%. Water has nudged up to 20.
The Goat’s rolled out a fresh new forecast overnight, and as always, I commend his wisdom to you.
Weather Situation
A slow-moving high pressure system over the Tasman Sea extends a ridge along the coast while an inland trough lies in the far west of New South Wales. The trough is moving east and is expected to cross the southern and central parts of the coast during the weekend.
