Merewether Beach June 25th
Merewether June 25th 2008
The swell was still hanging around today with the sets peaking up to about six foot. The wind was offshore from the north west at around twelve knots and it was a perfect winter’s day. There were not hordes of guys out and the waves were just coming through set after set. You did not have to wait long for a wave. In the morning it seemed like it was bigger with the lower tide. As the tide came in later in the morning it seemed to clean up a bit and break a bit more evenly. It also could have been a bit hollower with the higher tide coming in but i cannot say for sure.
I did not even have a look at NObbi’s or Newcastle Beach and went straight to Merewether today so I have no idea how the waves were at the town beaches. The forecast is for West to North West winds blowing from about fifteen to twenty five knots. The seas are expected to be from one to one point five meters and rising to two point five meters at times. The swell is expected to be approximately two meters from the South. The water temperature at the moment is around 17.4 degrees Celsius. So it is pretty chilly.
At this point in time the Wind is North west and blowing at seventeen knots according to Nobbys signal station. Low tide in the morning tomorrow will be after seven am with high tide at approximately two pm in the afternoon. The ground swell from the South is supposed to continue tomorrow but maybe drop a little to three to four foot waves. Winds will be from the west north west to the north west. It is perfect winter conditions and the surf is pumping so get out there and get some waves all for yourself.
