Small waves for Saturday but you’ll need to look around

Hello Friends,

Most places were too small to surf this morning, but spots with reasonable exposure to the south were seeing set wave faces into the chest plus range. It was pretty inconsistent and junky though. Tide is currently dropping to a low at 1150 and wind was coming faintly from the SSW as of 0630. Wind is set to pick up as it drifts to the SSE. So, your best bet is to hit it earlier rather than later if you can.

Surf outlook isn’t too exciting for the rest of the weekend and into the new week. Basically we’re looking at mainly straight south swell in the 1-1.5 m range with shortish periods and onshores by late morning.

Have yourself a fun Saturday everyone!

Not really surfable at south Narrabeen as of 0630

Sizable shutdown inside at Longy bombies

Surf boat carnival down the beach at Dee Why and only weak little bumps at Kiddies and No Mans through to the pole

Between the lugga and the pole, a little more size on the infrequent sets than down at the Dee Why end

A southerly change will continue to move up the northern half of the New South Wales coast this morning, reaching the far north this afternoon. Behind this, a high pressure system, currently over the Bight, will drift slowly east over the weekend. This high is forecast to reach the Tasman Sea by Monday, bringing a gradual shift to northerly winds in most coastal areas. The next trough and southerly change are expected Tuesday or Wednesday next week.
