Hi folks. It's been a while. Work recently got the better of me hence the lack of updates.

For those of you thinking about driving down today: In a nutshell don't bother unless you want to sail the heads.

The swell is pretty much none existent. I spend a good 15 minutes at the beach waiting for those bomb sets to come in but the photos below is the best I could get. IIt's knee high beach slop. I don't expect this to really improve throughout the day.

Wind is a different story. The first puffs of a Nor'Easter are there and I am guessing we will see about 20 to 25 knts by lunch time. If those pesky thunderstorms out in the valley stay away. There is quite a bit of moisture in the air (you can see it in the poor light conditions in the photos) and I wouldn't be surprised if we'd see a bit of storm activity this afternoon.

Looking further ahead early next week could bring a Southerly followed by a light Nor'Easter against a moderate Southerly swell the next day. It's early days and the BOM and NOAA models differ slightly. Here is hoping.

Good to see a forecast Stehsegler although the whole east coast looks like lacking wind for a few days. I'm off work this week (no wind) then back Monday with a 20-25 knot westerly forecast. Sound familiar?

You did miss a few days a few weeks back - 20 knots plus down your way, not much surf was some consellation. I think Wanda was OK one of those days but I couldn't make it.

I went down after work (got there about 6) and sailed for 2 hours in 20-25kts by myself. Absolutely no swell but perfect for freestyle and as such I was trying an assortment of things that generally failed
