3 Oh

Did you know that Sydney hasn't had a day over 30 degrees for 327 days.  That's hard to believe when we swelter through warm, humid mornings like today. Maybe I've acclimatised to cooler highs but it certainly feels pretty warm…

Respite

Can we get a little respite from these southerlies please? Come on... It's cold and that wind in the face can get a little agitating. Isn't is supposed to be summer anyways? I guess at least we've had swell, albeit mostly straight…

Wintery

Bit of a wintery scenario unfolding outside. We've got a deep low pressure system in the Tasman pushing up southerly winds and a big, raw south swell. Forget about warm temperatures and humidity, the cool air is going to be with us…

Leisurely

How nice are these long summer mornings. Even with the alarm set at 5:15 it's a challenge making it down in time to see the sun do its thing. With three or more hours of light before work kicks in there's time a plenty for leisure pursuits…

Cracker

We're on for a cracker of a day! Gone is the warm, humid unsettled air of yesterday. In its place, the air is cool and clear, sun's out, wind's light and variable and, if you can muster enough foam, there's a tiny little wave…

Unsettled

Steamy and unsettled out there this morning. There's some heavy clouds hanging over us and a warm humid air that's got an ominous vibe to it. Just as I write this my BOM app buzzed through a Severe Thunderstorm Warning…

Summer's here for real this morning. The sun's got some serious bite to it, the water's oh-so pleasant and we've got a summery little nor'east swell ruffled by a light overnight northerly. Add to that a chance thunderstorm…

Superlative

Superlative spring day unwrapping out there. Plenty of warm spring sunshine, just a light offshore breeze and a sleepy ocean that's inviting all-comers. They don't come much better than this really. If you happened…

14 Seconds

he south swell's kicked up a notch or two overnight. I could hear sets breaking in the dark from my place in the silent, early hours of this morning so I figured it must be pretty solid. The live buoys have the swell up…

27º

We're in for an absolutely sensational day in Sydney. 27 degrees, light offshore winds and, if you're lucky, a wave. If surfing's on the agenda, you'll need to find somewhere that's working with the south swell. There's plenty of it…
