Not good in south but cranking up north

A very short offshore, glassy window this morning was a red herring as the onshore only stayed away for a very short period.

Bunkers Bay seemed to be the only place with surfable waves today. The Farm had a crew but the waves were infrequent and had very little shape. Makes you pine for the days before houses when the creek mixed with the reef and it broke about twice as far out and for twice as far.

There were a few out at Boneyards which seemed better but it is a long haul for a not many waves.

The Cape still hasn't recovered from last summer's bush fire. What used to be thick bush now looks like the moon with no green and the sand encroaching up the hill.

Rocky Point looked to be affected by the wind and no one out.

There is a possibly of a few clearer days next week but the weekend doesn't look that great with two more small fronts due in the south west. Expect Wednesday to be a disaster as the Bunbury boys have tentatively planned a trip.

However CoastalWatch has another of those Desert Dreaming video of the north west cranking last week. Click the photo for the video.
