After all the talk on the news last night of how we were going to cop a flogging during the night, it turned out to be a bit of a fizzer.

There was hardly any wind and only light rain when I walked out the door early this morning. Things only got better by the hour as the wind dropped further and turned offshore. The swell is a solid 8 foot plus and sweeping in from the north. It’s fairly serious out there so be careful. Otherwise North Bondi or Coogee is the go.

It was a very desolate looking Bondi this morning due to the weather. Even the surf which was quite clean, was very uncrowded. Yesterday was a very different story out at North Bondi and I stopped counting surfers at around the 70 mark but there were way more than that. I can’t imagine how many would have been out if the sun had been shining.

Not only have the heavens opened up to give us all a good soaking but the wave drought thankfully looks over for a while as well. Winds could be a little iffy but if you are willing to travel somewhere over the next few days to find a protected corner, you could score!

Have fun!
