Hello Friends,
Passing showers this morning seem to have damped the crowds for the early session at Dee Why. Wind was WNW at 11-15kts before 0800, but the southerly was smashing into Wattamolla at 22-28 kts, so the comparatively approachable conditions were about to disappear.
It’s Thursday, so that means we can look forward to our weekly dose of surf wisdom from the mighty Goat later today. As always, I’m keen to see what he thinks about the coming week…
Take care everybody. NSW won’t hit effective 80% second dose coverage until sometime in late November, so a ways to go yet…
