yep Lake Manly is back in action as well today - not even a hint of whitewater hitting the bower or the queenie headland. Tough. Oh well we should have something tom by the look of it - fingers crossed!

Crap here, I went out before it looked ok cleanish but closing out a little

I was keen so went out, I got my ass handed to me on a plate

Southerly blowing hard, And cought up on a sand bar trying to get over the last bit of close out wash. Mwaaaaa maybe tommorow

I hate days like this when nothing works and it dents the pride and motivation

It's not a good sign when you see an empty car park on the cam...
I could see a Super at the alley though...

Not anymore - we have 4m of short period south swell (although this is increasing) heading past us this morning. Winds peaked at 50+ knots from the S and SSW at North Head overnight. Its still gusting to 38 as we speak.


EDIT - Fat fingers - it should have said 7m!!!! Duh.

I just checked the MHL bouy data site (this is live and not a forecast) and the swell is running at 7-9 meters on a 10-11 sec period but dead south with as Ted mentioned, with a 40 knot south wester.
