SSE

The kookaburra's were at it out front of my place at 4:30am this morning. They get a little confused and mistake the light of the full moon with the first light of dawn and wake the neighbourhood prematurely…

Bushfire Season

Yesterday was bizarre. I can't ever remember a week where not only are we fixated on the fires currently burning, but bushfires are being forecast like the weather. I guess it makes sense when you have single…

Warm / Cool

It's warm on the sand and cool in the water, a delightful combo for a Friday morning. 22 degrees at 7am on the way to a toasty top of 30 in Sydney today. Oh so Summery!

Filtered

We’ve got a gusty nor'wester that has raised a thin veil of dust over the city. It's making for some beautiful filtered light and giving the beach the look of old faded film.

Happy Monday

The Bureau was calling for a shower or two with a possible thunderstorm today. Hard to believe when you're shielding your eyes from a bright spring sun with blue sky overhead. It's a beautiful morning out there with a

It's going to be hot in Sydney today! Thirty-Six degrees with warm, dry westerly winds. Too hot to be hanging on the sand but with the water sitting at 20˚ a dip in the Tasman is going to be oh-so-refreshing. You gotta get in!

Steamy

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…

Top Corner

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…

Country Vibe

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…

Ol' Faithful

Nice Start

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 …

Windows

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…

Summer Vibe

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…
