  • An early season swell hit Sydney that was bigger than anything seen at this spot in the last 20 years. As usual the waves out there were far less than perfect but it had a unusual amount of grunt and push due to the high period in the swell. This session was shot from sunrise till midday.
    Filmed by : Tim Bonthon, Luke Duce, Sky monkey, Declan Clow, Byron Mcglauchlan, Dan Toomey, Andrew Hoff.

    We hardly ever see Stationary high pressures west of Tasmania and the one that's driving these incredible swells is 1039 hPa. As High pressures go, that's an enormous H even for Summer conditions when we see this degree of High Pressure.
    I watch sun wavelengths discharges on a daily basis, Sunspot, Coronal Mass Ejections, X-ray flares etcetera as all earth's weather is driver photo electro magnetically as and that includes the latitudinal transition of High pressures and Low pressures.
    There is no blocking Low pressure in the Tasman Sea or East of Kiwi land. This is a special event and could last for days to Sunday with continuous Easter Seaboard Onshore swells. What do the ocean swell buoys indicate ?
