It’s a lake on Sunday morning
Hello Friends,
No surfing for the Dee Why bubble today. A beautiful sunny morning with mild temps and a light breeze from the north. Swell is 0.5 m from the SE at 10 seconds apart. Prospects are not good for today, but there could be some little waves around tomorrow as the swell comes up from the NE. Tuesday’s weather is supposed to be showery, but the swell could perk again and be into the interesting 1-2+ metre range at south magnets on Wednesday and Thursday.
Stay masked when you’re away from home everybody and get the jab asap.
Have a good one!
Weather Situation
A ridge of high pressure extends across the north coast of NSW. As a strong cold front approaches on Sunday northerly winds are expected to freshen. Northerly winds will strengthen on Monday ahead of the cold front which will reach the southern half of the coast in the afternoon or evening and the remainder on Tuesday. It will bring a strong southwest to southerly change. A low pressure system is forecast to develop around central parts on Tuesday with a further strengthening of winds, which will persist on Wednesday as the low drifts slowly east.
