Gridlock

The beach was packed yesterday…barely a scrap of sand spare… At 3pm yesterday thick clouds crawled across Bondi’s summery beachscape. Within minutes of the first thunder clap we had howling onshores and the beach was cleared in minutes. I was quite surprised to see clean conditions and the odd 2-3 footer this morning. It’s a […]

King tide

We’ve got a new East swell and summery NE winds to kick this week off. I am not in Bondi, but I’ve been told its 2 foot in the corner and offshore. (I would also assume a very large crowd out for the early seeing it is a stunning day with a max 25). At […]

It’s going to be an interesting day weatherwise… Started off cool and overcast, currently 28 degrees. Then later today it will cook to 36 degrees. Thirty sixer. Tonight a south change will rip through dropping the temps back to 22 for tomorrow. All over the place. Psycho weather. Good for a swim after work though. […]
