More little waves to be had
Hello Friends,
Another small but amusing surf morning along the beaches. Dee Why looked to be waist to chest high on sets. There were lots of folks in the water enjoying the benign conditions. It’s going to hit 32°C later, so we can expect the surfer count to stay robust all day.
Wind was lightly offshore before 0800 but is due to move around to the north later. Swell was mostly east and 1.3 metres at 10 seconds as of 0700. Pretty much the same as yesterday. Tide hit low at 0845 and will be back to a modest 1.16 m high at 1440.
Go well and have fun!
