Nope the picture above isn’t from today…wish… If these bad conditions continue my archives are going to run thin. Well it’s onshore as expected with a large increase in swell size. I saw sets up around 6 foot out the back, but it’s a total frothn’ mess – only one helmeted lone wolf trying to paddle out, who quit after 5 minutes. Forget about it for now (or head north to protected Manly/Collaroy). Best wait for the switch to NE winds later tonight. High tide 10:40am, low tide 5:30pm. Swell will come off a bit over night but should still be around 3-4 foot in the morning.
