Dust Haze
This morning Sydney was engulfed by dusty haze. Yesterday’s strong winds kicked up the dust inland of Sydney, then a weather trough dragged the dust east to the coast, just in time for our sunrise. It’s a little different to our recent smoke screens, and you may get a few respiratory problems! Waves – what […]
Pacific
Everyone’s a little bit cranky due to the lack of waves. It’s been a while since we’ve really had something decent to ride, I know, I get it…breathe. Breathe. Breathe! Today’s ridiculously flat, welcome to Lake Bondi. It’s not often that the most die-hard beginners aren’t surfing Bondi. Glass half full – it’s been nice and […]
The Beach People
Today is tailored perfectly for your beach lazing needs. It just is… The water is a ridiculous 24 degrees. The mercury topping 31. It’s Wednesday, you’ve put in two good solid dayz at work. You deserve some beach time. Go on. It all can wait… Don’t panic – FMS (Fruit Man Sam) is now delivering […]
Level
This freezing, howling wind has blown all the swell out to sea by the looks of it. Bondi at 6:10am didn’t even break – Lake Bondi. However, by 8:00am I saw a ‘wave’ every 15 minutes…then at 9:10am there’s a little something to sample – 1 to 2 foot, breaking nice on the left. Could […]
Imminent
There are no waves…really…and if you are planning a surf I would delay until later ron. See, the charts are hinting a south swell increase late today…quite a decent one…and tomorrow and Wednesday we’re back on the job with 3-4 footers. South swell + WNW winds – that’s good news. It’s still quite frosty, only […]
Frequency
This time of year the northerly winds start to kick up, the water gets that bone rattling icy current and the decent swells become infrequent. After the joy of last week we’ve got very little to talk about today. Predominantly flat morning with weird 2 foot sets every 15 minutes. Paddle-boarders dominated the line up […]
Glare
It seems we’ve made the switch from a chilly winter in summer overnight. Not only is the sunshine saturating the mornings now, but also the powerful winters swells have dissipated. Today it’s so flat it looks like a lake. Lake Bondi. Any smaller and we’d be gettin’ into negative values. People out? Of course, its […]
