More surf for you and you and you
Hello Friends,
Another magic morning surfers. Wind was 11-15 kts at 0830 and swell at sea was 1.8 m at nearly 11 seconds from the SE. So, a perfect alignment of wind and swell for many of Sydney’s beaches. Water’s clean and 18 C, while tide hits a modest 1.34 m high at 0900 and then runs out only a little to the 0.67 m low at 1420.
Weather-wise we can expect this morning’s sunny skies to cloud over as we head into a spell of showery weather that the Bureau tells us will last into Saturday. Happily, the swell energy should very gradually fade over the same period. With any luck there will be waves right through the weekend.
Go well!
Here’s one for your calendar:
Weather Situation
A low pressure system over the south-eastern Tasman Sea will continue to slowly move eastwards as a weak high pressure system drifts over the Bight. From Thursday, a trough will move up the New South Wales coast, deepening and forming a weak low off the north coast on Friday, bringing strengthening southerly winds. This system will weaken and move rapidly offshore later in the weekend, as a series of cold fronts brush the south of the state.
