The Goat’s Surf Forecast
The Goat’s Surf Forecast issued Friday 21 February 2025: Seven day outlook for Sydney
Bit late this week/today but~~~ C’est la vie.
Big change in a. the surf and b. the weather during the past week… from a. big and good, to b.small and rubbish, but as the French say in English~~~That’s Life.
Tonight around 6pm, there were about a dozen groms out, huddled together in a bunch, in onshore winds, under dull grey sky with occasional showers, waiting for rubbish waves that didn’t come while I was watching. Maybe they were trying to practice a move for the weekend comp? Who knows…
But they were out there, with their mates, having fun… just by being out there.
Good on them! Remember when you were like that?!
Surf Outlook:
Saturday: around 1 ish metres, give or take, more or less, at places open to dead South swell (with Noreast wind)
Sunday: similar
Monday: ditto
Tuesday: same same from North East
Wednesday: ditto ditto
Thursday: might start coming up a little say into the 1-2 metre rnmage East North East

Have Fun! Be a grom.
