The drizzle continues out there this morning. Not exactly the kind of weather and light that inspires an early start; even the dog was hesitant to walk out the door this morning. But, we've had a good run in 2021. Some fine weather…

Surprising little pulse of nor'east swell groomed clean by an early sou'wester out there this morning. We're talking waist-to-shoulder high little runners rolling in sets of three or four waves. It looked like a whole bunch…

Bit of a grey and dreary morning out on the sand. It wasn't raining, just the odd drizzle with but apparently the showers are coming later. The waves were pretty lacklustre at first light but it you ever wanted to surf Manly…

Don't write them off completely, these summer northerlies have their virtues. For one, they don't attract the kind of crowds that a clean offshore morning draws into the line up. That makes them fertile fields for the grommets…

I spent the morning chasing the sun and running from the rain. It was a varied morning of low clouds, sunshine and showers with some brief moments of beautiful light; even the odd rainbow floating over the west.

Morning! If you were up with the early birds you might have caught that sunrise glow of deep pinks and purples at first light. It was a good one! There was even a crescent moon hanging just above the clouds…

What a steamy start to the day in Sydney. It's 24 degrees already and we're on our way to a very warm 35. There's a chance of a severe thunderstorm this afternoon before a strong southerly change knocks us down…

I snuck out the door just in time to catch a little colour on the horizon moments before 6am this morning. It was more of a warm spring glow than a full sunrise burner but worth the commitment to an early start. Is there…

For a day forecast as sunny, it took some time for the main guest to show up. I took a peek out the window at 6am to a full sky of clouds. Even at 9:30 the sun had only show itself in glimpses. With a light onshore messing..

There's a fair bit of swell out there this morning. The lion's share is missing us in Manly but there's the odd overhead set sneaking in and rattling the banks. The reality is it's mostly straight with the odd fickle corner.

Tom Batrouney is a local surfer and eco-runner on mission to save wild places and run... potentially forever! Tom's latest endeavour "Project Run Forever" is possible his loftiest to date with a goal of raising half a million…

Yeeeew! Look's like we've made it to another Friday! I don't know about you guys but the pace of life has picked up significantly since the end of lockdown. Life used to be so simple but now there are so many options….

After all that wind yesterday afternoon and evening, I wasn't expecting a sunny, glassy morning out on the sand. But it's a good morning; real nice in fact! The wind's a light westerly now and there's no trace of that 20knot…

f you like your Monday mornings bright and sunny then you'd be loving the way this week has kicked off. The sun's up and its radiating plenty of spring warmth; we're heading to a top temp in Sydney of 25 degrees today…

The silver ling to a week of relentless northerlies and damp is a lively, peaky nor-east wind swell groomed clean by 10 knots of west-south-west wind. It's looking real nice out there this morning, a classic spring set up…

Bit of a damp, drab start to the week so far and it looks as though there's more rain to come. Kind of ironic that this weather has set in on the day we get to stroll on in to our favourite cafe or pub, pull up a chair and hang…
