Today

Post by byunhosa »

RJ's dawn patrol was good. Putz and Jimbo out too. HH+ on the sets; tons of current; very low tide. And, that familiar RJ smell . . . I think the tide coming in might help for those who can get out during the day.

Happy Independence Day.

Trails was HH+ sets at dawn patrol. Mushy, but crowds not too heavy because there was a lot of surf to be had! No other kneelos in sight, but because of the size of the waves, the longboarders let the big ones through for me to poach!

HB this mornings dawn patrol was firing and no one out surfing from beach blvd to the pier :lol: however the beach, the parking lot, PCH, beach blvd and downtown HB was a cattle run :shock: I've NEVER seen so many people out and about at 530 am securing thier spots on the beach for the fireworks this evening at the beach... looked like a tent city down there
great fun sharing the lineup with scott H. chuck, mark and me and wayne k. on the beach with his camera.

Here we go again :lol:
another swell coming our way 8)

Forecast overview by Mike Perry effective 9th to 13th July 2007:

The developing Low just east of the Central NSW coast today (Sunday July 8, 2007) is looking to twist up into a powerful system (here we go again) and it will, only slowly, move away to the East.

As it does it's going to fan a lot of SE swell onto the coast with swell sizes exceeding the 2 metre mark. In fact, at least one computer model expects the swell hitting the coast between the South Coast and Byron, to be in excess of 3 metres by the middle of this week. This particular model is also forecasting a second system to develop off of the West Coast of NZ and enhance the Australian systems' wave generating potential throughout the midweek period.

In any case, there's little doubt that the surf's going to come up and come up hard with the most likely pattern to be stormy at first in the Sydney to Central Coast regions over the next 24 hours and a rapidly rising South swell. This swell will tend more SE as the Low moves slowly away and the period between waves increases. Up comes the cleaner groundswell at this time and it should stay with us for several days.

Winds should start off very south-west to southerly but quickly turn to the SE and that will be the dominant wind direction for the duration of this swell event.

You can expect the SE to stay up for several days, (with local SW mornings, the further away from the Low centre you go), and eventually the winds will ease, but only slowly, as this system eventually disappears across the Tasman by the end of this week.

The swell short view? On the Central, Sydney and South coasts, it comes up strong through Monday, is solid Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and eases off Friday and back to near normal by Saturday. The Northern NSW coast will run about 24 hours behind this schedule and the Goldy will be about half that size but that is open to change depending on swell direction.


Anyone got a gun that's still intact after this last run of swell? You'll be needing it!

Cheers,

Mike Perry, Forecaster.
