Not quite totally flat
Hello Friends, I guess the good news is that it’s not quite dire enough to be absolutely unsurfable. There were a few bods in at Dee Why for the early. It’s struggling to get to waist high, so you need to be extra keen. Just to add to the picture, the wind call is for […]
It’s small on the northern beaches
Hello Friends, Well, there may be a metre of SSE swell out at sea, but with an average period of around 8 seconds, there’s nothing much showing. No bods were in the water at Dee Why that I could see when I checked it out this morning. There were some people at North Narrabeen for […]
Very, very small, hardly there at all
Hello Friends, Is your voter rego up to date? You’ve got until 8pm tonight to get your signed rego in. Here’s the AEC link. I liked the person on the radio who said, enroll to vote or your parents will decide who should run the country. 😉 Not sure if your rego is up to […]
Dour morning
Hello Friends, Sunday was a good morning to stay in bed for Sydney surfers. At 0730 the skies were clouded over, the ocean was an unappetising grey, and worse, what paltry little swell we had on Saturday was pretty much gone. I say pretty much because people were in the water having a go at […]
Back to very small
Hello Friends, Very cold start this morning. In fact it was so cold that I actually spotted some frost on the sand at south Narrabeen. Yikes! Waves are much smaller now. Places that were surfable yesterday were just about flat this morning. There were a few bods giving the shorey and the point a go […]
Not too pretty
Hello Friends, There is some energy about this morning, but gee it’s not too lovely looking. The wind’s out of the ENE at 10-15kts, so it’s solidly onshore at Dee Why. The swell is a couple metres out at sea and coming from the SE, but Huey’s got the power setting at an anemic 7 […]
Rough as
Hello Friends, Extremely messy at Dee Why this morning but it didn’t stop a few hardy specimens from giving it a go. The Bureau expects the 15-20 kts of SE to moderate and swing south later. However, you’d have to say it’s not looking especially promising for most of Sydney’s beaches today. South corners could […]
Fade to flat
Hello Friends, Wow. That’s an impressive decline. 48 hours ago Dee Why point was pumping but at 0730 this morning it was just about flat. The combination of an incoming tide and only a metre of 8 second SSE swell are adding up to not very much at all where Dee Why’s concerned. The Bureau […]
Light conditions this morning
Hello Friends, Bumping along with little more than bumps at Dee Why this morning. The MHL data shows a tiny NE windswell of about a metre lapping in at a mere 6 seconds apart. I’m not convinced the two folks sitting at Dee Why point are going to pick up much of anything. But they’re […]
Oh yeah, it’s very small again in Sydney
Hello Friends, Watched the beach for some time this morning waiting for one of the extra keen people in the water at Dee Why to catch something. Eventually a wee line appeared and despite a great thrashing of arms, the would-be-surfer had to watch it slip past and fold softly over on the sand. Back […]
