Another fun surf day for Sydney
Hello Friends,
So jealous. Sydney was pretty smooth and clean at first light with heaps of shoulder to head plus energy at the magnets. And it looks from the forecast as though there should be favourable winds until late afternoon. However, as the BoM call below reveals, the favourable wind conditions are set to disappear overnight, even though the swell should keep on keeping on. If the models have it right, you could be waiting until Sunday for the onshores to back off… so, today is the day to hit it!
Postcards below…
