Looking pretty quiet this morning
Hello Friends,
Thursday dawned with clear skies over Sydney and a light NW breeze stirring the leaves. Out at sea the MHL buoy was detecting a metre of 9-second energy from the SE. I couldn’t see anything resembling a wave from the RealSurf HQ crows nest. In theory there should be something in the knee to maybe waist high range at optimally-aligned exposures. But if for some reason you can’t go for a surf today, I can say with some confidence that you aren’t missing anything.
It being a Thursday, I’m looking forward to hearing what the Goat thinks about our surf prospects for the next week. I have my eye on Tues-Weds at the moment…
Have yourself a top old Thursday everyone!
