DAILY POSTS

It's a steamy one out there today. 21 degrees on the sand at 8am and we're sitting at 82 percent humidity. And today's a mere prelude to tomorrow's 35 and warm westerlies. You better schedule some time in the Tasman…

It's good to be back home on The Beaches this morning. There's still some swell about although it was looking a bit raw and wobbly at first light. The wind was NE most of last night and the brief offshore…

It's nice to spend sometime in the country. Up here, surf checks are a stroll up the hill or a bounce down a dirt road; empty roads are as novel as empty beaches and post surf plans are a pie and a nap in the shade until…

Good morning. Looks like Sydney has been having some sensational weather, all-day offshore winds and fun waves. You guys should be booking me trips year-round because every time I leave town…

What a beautiful start to the week we woke up to. The sky lit up with a trail of light and colour followed by an hour of warming sunshine on the skin. Some fun waves too! The clouds are scattered …

By midday yesterday the swell had jumped to a proper double-overhead with 4 wave sets streaming through from Queenscliff Bombie to the beach. It caught me off guard and the guys walking up the sand with broken…

Oh boy, it's cold out there this morning! It was as if winter had blown back over The Heads with a blanket of clouds to block out any chance of a warm sunrise with the message that Summer's still 7 weeks away…

Welcome to the new timezone - Sydney Summer Time. We might have lost an hour of daylight in the mornings but just think of those warm balmy evenings surfing in nothing but boardshorts or a bikini…

It's like we've time-warped straight into December in Sydney today. We had the typical summer salt haze hanging in the Norfolk, a bumpy nor'east swell and warm beach weather from the moment the sun rose this…

You loving these early sunrises? Well tomorrow is the second earliest sunrise of the year, only Saturday will be earlier at 5:27am. On Sunday as the clocks goes forward an hour, we'll say goodbye to these extended…

25, 27, 29 - those are your lucky numbers, especially if you've got the next three days off. We're in for a sensation run of weather with top temperatures creeping up into the high twenties…

It was absolutely bucketing down at 5am this morning. In fact, it was raining so hard that the noise actually woke me 10 minutes before my alarm had a chance to jolt me out of bed.

Ten years ago this week, Sydney awoke fully engulfed in a deep red haze of fine dust, blown in from outback New South Wales hundreds of kilometres away. The outside world resembled a scene from the surface of Mars…

It's another sweet Spring day with bucketloads of sunshine, a groomed ocean and just a little pop in south swell. The waves were a little slow and the tide a touch high at first light but I suspect we'll see a little more …

The spring sunshine is in absolute abundance this morning. Queue that up with a very light offshore wind and some neat little log waves and the scene is pretty much picture perfect for whatever takes your fancy…

Morning! There's a fine Monday unfolding outside. Notice how much time we've got in the morning right now? We're in that sweet window of the year where first light is close to 5am and there's time enough to fit in all…
