as june draws to a close, it's been in the words of our steven shearer, a King June ... wake up and it's on again with a o'nite bump. amazing how up here, in the complete absence of a noted or a forecast "hype" swell, the waves just endlessly cook thanks to local bathymetry.

june has been a month-long breakfast bonanza of beautifully bonafide bloody beachbreaks.


say that five times fast, shearer.

ahahahaha btw, it's Stephen as in the ancient Irish spelling.

It's been a bounty. The banks that got obliterated in May are back shallower than ever. Toob-city.

Agree totally on the quality during "hype-less" swells. They are always so much better.

Stephen it is then.

yeah, super shallow banks lurching out of deeper water thanks to (in places) a complete absence of the outside storm bar. what's that – no back storm bar in places – about..?

it's been a 9 out of 10 June just based on the bank situation.

won't do us any good though Mik.

It is part of a monster MJO and subsequent WWB that will see the nascent El Nino really fire up. Expect dust storms by Rocktober.

sorry Mik, all those computer nerds can acronym their life away why can't weather nerds?

WWB= westerly wind burst. Reversal of the trade winds as a result of MJO forced tropicaL convection and one of the main driving forces in an El Nino. Creates a Kelvin wave which pushes warm sub-surface water towards the South American coast.

coincidently there's been some unseasonably early typhoons in the northern hemisphere this year.

Good article with a bit of science about the 'omega block' record heatwave currently assaulting Europe.
