Sunny, breezy and small
Hello Friends,
Monday morning kicked off with sunny skies, 8-14 kts of SSW wind and a 1.7 m, 7-second straight south wind swell. Tide was coming into the 1.72 high tide at 1120. And that all added up to not much in the way of surfing options at Dee Why. There were a few people in the water just north of the SLSC, but it looked to be maybe waist high at best – and infrequent.
The Bureau tells us that the swell will gradually come up a little over the day and tomorrow morning could see SE swell in the 2-ish metre range along with light and variable wind at daybreak. Could be worth a dawn patrol…
Go well with your Monday everyone.
