A perfectly still ocean and an array of clouds catching the dawn light painting the scene pink this morning. There was close to zero chance of getting a wave. No good for surfers but…

It's was a session for the grommets out there this morning. Yesterday's bump in east swell has faded into insignificance and an early high-tide has swallowed what remains of the energy. Clean offshore conditions…

Weird how weather patterns cycle. It was around this time last month, at the same waning crescent phase of the moon, that we had an anomaly of a day. A warmish day, with an unseasonal nor'easter. Today it's

Neat little pulse of east swell out there this morning. I wasn't expecting it. But then I haven't been paying much attention to the forecast lately. It's been a run of flat to small days with a reasonable…

Perfectly still morning out on Cabbage Tree Bay this morning. I could hear the swimmers doing their daily crossing talking up the pristine conditions and visibility through their snorkels. While the ocean was still…

Happy Monday morning to you! Last week was all quite on the surf-front as well as the post's dropping into your inbox. I had a busy week of production over at Frame Room but for those…

Nice morning out there today. A full sky of orange and pink in every tone from vivid in the north to soft pastels down south. There's nothing doing surf-wise unless you're in the micro grommet…

We've come out the other side of the wind and rain and we're back on track for some more settled Sydney winter weather. Today's a stunner and apart from the odd shower on Sunday…

It's been wild across the NSW coast the last couple of days. Big swell and howling offshores mean that there's been the odd window of surfable waves. Deadman's had a few yesterday…

This morning all is calm and sunny; another perfect day in a long run of perfect days. But the sunshine out the window right now could be the last we see for a few days at least. The BOM is warning…

Brisk and wintery conditions this morning. It was 8 degrees when I left the house and scampered down the street and across the cold sand. Luckily it's significantly warmer in…

The westerlies have swept across the city and whatever remained of the NE wind swell at dawn has been blown out to sea. Believe it or not, it was surfable this morning. It was marginal for sure…

Today is something of an anomaly in terms of the weather we've experienced lately and the weather that's to come. It's warm with northerly winds; a summery day in the midst of a run of cool winter…

It's the shortest (week) day of year. With the Winter Solstice tomorrow, we'll have 9 hours and 54 minutes of daylight in Sydney today and almost all of that will be pure sunshine. It's another classic…

Another frosty* morning on The Beaches this mornings as that high pressure system that's been parked over the state pushes cool air in from the west. The upside of this weather is how still and clear the mornings…

This week we find ourselves itself in the midst of our shortest days. Sunrise is low and late in the northern part of the sky casting long headland shadows and leaving a quiet stillness over the beach…

Really pretty morning out on the beach front this morning. Soft pastels before the sun popped up and some rich warm light once the sun was free of the horizon. It's the kind of crisp, clear air…

The swell finally capitulated to the strong offshores that have been blowing for days. We had a good run of swell but yesterday it flatlined and this morning there's just a hint of a pulse. It's mostly flat…
