thinking out loud

Hello Friends

Sorry to miss out my report yesterday. Broke the string. Boo. Oh well, situation this morning is not to impressive along the stretch of northern beaches I can see. A few bods were in for the early at Dee Why. Looks to be around the waist high mark on the bigger ones, so if you can’t get to the beach today, I’d say you aren’t going to be missing much. This is pretty likely to be the case (with the usual variations) around the Sydney region. The MHL buoy is showing SSE swell at less than a metre and about 10 sec apart on average. Were it not for that period, there’d be utter flatness.

It’s pretty smooth now, but the Bureau says we’re due for a 20-25 kt SW change through in the afternoon and those winds are set to persist through tomorrow.

Will try to get back again later today with more … if there’s more to tell ya about!

Go well!

Hello Friends,

Swell is on the fade today, but there are still a few little ones around at beaches with a bit of exposure to the SE (which is most of Sydney really). Sets at Dee Why are around the chest high mark on the takeoffs, but mostly it’s more around the waist high range. Swell period is only 9 seconds, so the juice factor is not high. You’ll have to work the more high performance equipment to get much happening, so might be a plan to grab the funboard if you’ve got surfin’ on the agenda.

Not looking too wonderful for the Sydney region over the next couple days. The charts show it dwindling to flat by Friday but then there could be a little uptick on Saturday before it drops back to minor on Sunday.

So Huey’s not completely gone, just kinda disinterested in the Sydney region at the moment. On the other hand, if you’re looking at the charts for western Vic, you’ve gotta find that swell forecast interesting looking. Wind’s not the best, but I imagine there will be a few places going reasonably well.

Go well with your day and get up to some good when no one’s looking!
