It was raining lightly when I rose before light this morning. However, there were holes in the clouds where the deep blue, pre dawn sky showed through. By the time I made it to the beach, those holes were ever increasing in size until the sun finally breached the horizon and the colour switched from grey to gold in an instant.
The wind has backed off but the swell is still quite solid, if a little lumpy from the few days of on shore winds. Not many places handling on the lower tide and Bronte looked the pick. The dozen surfers sitting in the lineup were struggling to find a good one and the occasional big set caught a few of them out, leaving a trail of tomb stoning boards in the white water trail.
Tomorrow should back off a little in size with light winds out of the south before a stronger ground swell arrives for Saturday. The winds won’t swing back to the north before Sunday so maybe look for protected south corners. Bronte will probably be the best option again around here.
Have a good one!
Bill
