South Coast on Monday AM (pix)

[stoive]

good stuff Salty you get a surf in?

[mustkillmulloway]

and this just in

While holiday makers on the north coast are being evacuated due too the impending cyclone and battling Thu raining flood waters everywhere north of Newcastle

merimbula bar on the "sunny south coast" is producing perfect waves with very few surfers and locals only too happy to give ya wave

it's not too late cancel your flooded/rainny/unsafe nth coast holiday booking go south and score

Salty just turn off at the golf course and veer left into the abortion known as Shell Cove and take the first roundabout right. Drive past the school and up the hill and over the bridge then it should all become familiar to you. The Farm's no secret and for what its worth it was piss weak , packed and 2 feet. Ideal for my kids today

I would have thought pambula rivermouth would be pumping in this NE swell direction rather than merimbula bar, doesn't it need a S swell to fire?
I would love to see some spots around shellharbour like windang, suckhole and reddies right now, they would be on fire!!! And headies too!

[GAV!N]

most of shellharbour would be onshore in the NE'er, mini pipe would probably be cracking, i know somewhere thats about 4-6ft offshore cracking at the moment (not going to say where ). there was one guy towing in and 3 paddling at about 5pm this arvo, dunno why the guy bothered towing, the guys paddling were getting the best waves by far.

Salty, thanks for the pics (nice HR )

Gavin, we'd be keeping that one quiet
It should be better in the morning

I would love to see some spots around shellharbour... they would be on fire!!!

I looked at The Pool (and Shallows??) around lunch. It was solid (8 feet+) and holding it well.

it's a long way from "the humpy".

Yeh, Meribula bar only works on a big South swell. Conversely, the river mouth round the corner .... ohh, so long ago, but still fresh in my mind... definitely works best on a NE swell.

and maybe rabbit island, the shitter reef break and MM shorie?

Sweet shots Salty - love the first one.

Here's some more South Coast stuff from dawn and dusk today.

Quality poor - sun in the eyes this morning and almost dark tonight !

[Slowman]

There's that NE wind dang!

[longbum]

As the photos suggest, it was real shitty down here, bad angle coupled with bad banks = cranky man.
Today wasn't much better.

[Hano]

There's that NE wind dang!

Crowd was thicker than this sessions prawn run, chaotic.
Gunna design a remote control shark to rid the pedestrians.
