A Day Late

It was supposed to be a raining one this morning; it didn't last long. The clouds have stuck around but most of the showers have moved out to sea and the sun's been sneaking through every now and then.

Sieve

It's another morning of mixed swell out on the Tasman with the dominant being a short-period ENE wind swell. There's waves to be found but you'll need to sieve through the mix to find the better ones…

Morning... or maybe it's afternoon already. It's been a slow start to the day; an even slower start to the week (it's Tuesday already right). It's a bit of a dreary, wet one out there today with an overcast sky and the odd shower…

Here Comes The Sun!

Beautiful start to the day out there! We had some lovely light as the sun burst through the clouds and there's waves around thanks to a persistent stream of east swell. It's been a good run and it looks as through…

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!
