DAILY POSTS

Morning! If today's your first day back at work or school you'll take comfort in the fact that it's going to be a short week. Just three days on the tools and the weekend will embrace you with her warm embrace…

The swell's stepped up a notch and swung around to the east this morning. It's just under 2 metres, 90 degrees east at 12 seconds. That's not a whole lot bigger in size but the direction and increased period…

All the numbers looked good for this morning, except maybe the early high tide. On paper an east swell and a light offshore usual means something special's on the cards. Unfortunately this morning fell a little shy…

Gee, Autumn's been fun so far. It feels like we've had a constant run of swell; even the smaller days have had plenty of energy and consistency. This morning we've got a fresh injection of size and energy from the ESE and super clean…

t's chunky out there this morning! After a long weekend of good waves this morning it's stepped up a notch and there's some solid overhead waves with plenty of grunt behind them. Surfline has…

Another morning of super fun waves out there. The east swell is up a touch on yesterday and with a light westerly the conditions are smooth as velvet. The chatter in the line up seems to suggest everywhere else on The Beaches…

Well that was kinda fun! With light showers hanging about I put the camera away and joined the fray for a couple of waves at sunrise.  Even with most of the Northern Beaches surfing population out for the early…

It's nice to have some breathing room back in the mornings. Sunrise this morning was at 6:09am and with the dawn twilight there's plenty of time for morning activities and rituals.

This morning's post is a flashback through the month that's been. March has been warm, probably the warmest month in a couple of years, maybe longer; we had 8 days over 30 degrees and 16 days when…

Steely grey out on the ocean this morning. Heavy dark clouds have surrounded us but as yet the rain that's fallen is mostly light and sparse, no sign of the potential storms as yet. The good news is the ocean is about…

You don't have to set your alarm to be up for the early these day; sunrise is at 7:04am so the first light glow starts around 6:30, which would have been a sleep-in a couple of months back. After missing yesterday's brief

Starting to feel a bit like autumn out there. The wind from the sou-west had a crisp coolness to it at first light this morning and it's had a smoothing effect on the ocean. We've got neat, glassy conditions and the waves…

We've got a mix of swell on the Tasman this morning; 0.7m ENE @ 5sec and 0.9 SSE @ 9sec. It's enough to whip up some head-high peaks on the fully exposed reaches and it's probably a touch smaller…

The only escape from the onshore wind this morning was within the relative calm of Cabbage Tree Bay. How lucky we are to have this beautiful and diverse aquatic reserve on our doorstep. Above the water…

Saturday, Sunday and today couldn't be more contrasted. From clear blue skies, light winds and hot sunshine, to thick sea mist and summer heat and now overcast and windy; we've seen some scene changes.

The Indian Summer furnace rolls on. Yesterday was a scorcher and today's we're marching up to 30 degrees again. Good thing we've got the ocean and the world's most beautiful harbour on our doorstep; it's an easy escape…

We're in for another 30+ day in Sydney today, that'll be the 5th this month and probably not the last. The Bureau has announced an end to La Niña and we're on El Niño watch - what's that mean for weather and surf?
