Surf Report Northern Beaches Sydney 2:01pm 23/05/2013
Swell size: 2-3ft SE
Arvo update: Extra wind push and storm kick, wind was offshore briefly now back onshore. Morning Report: Waves 2-3ft Swell SE @8 secs,winds S-SE 12-22 knots. Still waves but not pretty, directions SE with size around 2ft and occasional better set, winds steady onshore creating plenty of bump and chop, wet and cold but if your keen, enough breaking to keep you fit. S facing/open beaches much of a muchness, maybe marginally better protection in a S corner.
