Easing swells, funky winds

This is our current source of easterly swell for the region, so as it exits our swell window we’ll see a gradual easing of the source fetch and thus a slow drop in surf size.

Stacks of swell ahead for Sydney, but tricky winds

I’m kinda surprised we haven’t seen more size across Sydney beaches today. If you’d looked at today’s buoy readings in a few months time, and then been asked to estimate how big the surf was - with significant heights over 4m and maximum heights of 8m - I reckon you’d guess a lot bigger than 3-4ft at south facing beaches.
