The third east coast low in a month has really left its mark on the Cronulla beaches,with all the sand dragged off the shore and deposited out the back leaving the banks devastated.
The swell picked up on Sunday for a fantastic day of surfing ,light offshore winds and a building swell left everywhere firing until it got too big on dark before the 80km sou easter blew through making it unsurfable and wild on Monday.
Tuesday morning the swell was still solid and breaking half a km out to sea with a light offshore ,there were a few waves at North Cronulla if you had a big board and were a good paddler but I got caught inside badly and got washed back into the beach only catching two waves on my 8 footer.
The usual reefs were pumping for the local big wave crew who have been kept busy with the consistent huge swells.
The forecast looks like a Covid chart with this swell dying super fast as the low disapates and heads out to sea-leaving it almost flat by Friday/Saturday.
The winds will be offshore all week-hence the swell dropping but the clean winds should still give us some nice waves for the week.
This mornings conditions are about as good as its going to get this week,the swell still sitting around the 4-5ft mark albeit it with a bit of dirty water from the river run-off.
On Sunday we get another southerly change so surfers should make the most of the waves we have until its all blown out to sea.
