Leftovers

If you missed yesterday, there's a quality serving of leftovers out there this morning. The east swell is hanging in there despite the southerly wind and there's just enough offshore angle in the wind to feather the odd tube…

Antithesis

Today is the antithesis Friday. The sun's out, the wind's offshore and the waves are cooking; you couldn't get a more direct turn around from that grim, grey lead into the weekend. Today's a beach day of the highest order…

Yeah Nah

It's another windy and wet morning out there. The straight onshore winds and brown water are making a dip in the ocean about as appealing as a poke in the eye. In fact, you might get a poke in the eye if you choose…

Bright Side

It's been a wet ol' year so far, In fact, I believe it's been the wettest March on record for some parts of Sydney. I'm sure the same could be said for a great many parts of the East Coast. This LaNiña has been relentless!

Escape?

The rain's back, the ground is saturated and the lagoons and stormwater drains are flowing again. Just when the water was clearing up, the ocean has turned a deeper shade of brown again at Queenscliff. If you're keen…

Improving

It's a decent start to the week out there. After a couple of showers this morning, the weather has settled and the light offshore has groomed a pulsey little 3-4ft east swell.

Yesterday's bump in swell is hanging in there this morning although the shine's been taken off it by an early southerly change; the light sou-wester didn't quite make it to sunrise. The wind's up at 10knots from due south…
