According to our friends at the BOM we are expecting significant storm activity this afternoon so it was fitting that the old adage of Red in Morning - Sailor take warning was probably right.
It was a warm morning on the beach with a 2-3 ft northeast swell and a light and warm 5-10 knot nor easter blowing. It created a clean, warm and no bities swim for 110 swimmers, 1 newbie and a glorious 23.5 degrees in the water.
Warm and clear before the sun.

A quiet affair this morning

Ahhhh the places we have been.
Have a great day.
Cheers
