"Stay happy and you'll be perfectly fine" - Jack Norris

Midday less than marvellous

Murk has finally cleared enough to get a snap of the point and beach. Tide has filled in and it seems pretty much to be making surfing more or less impossible. But there are folks trying nonetheless. Good on ’em says I!

Revving up again

Hello Friends, Dark grey skies and WSW wind to start on the northern beaches. Interestingly, as I write this at 0745, wind is 25-30 kts at Little Bay and Kurnell and west at Fort Denison. Anyway, weird wind to one side, the swell has ramped back up overnight. It’s back up to two metres from […]

Brrr and showery

Hello Friends, Cold this morning and the odd shower rolling through just adds to the resistance many of us will feel to exiting the doona zone for the early. But those sturdy types who didn’t mind pulling on a steamer when the temp was in the low teens might well have had the best of […]

Still a few in the tank…

Hello Friends, Good to see that yesterday’s uptick has lasted through the night and into this morning. Down Dee Why way there are a few sets into the chest high range at both the point and the beach. Given the swell is dead south at 8 seconds, I’d think spots facing that direction will potentially […]
