We are not coming. One of our friends coming from Melbourne for this weekend only and in Melbourne he's just for 2 months from Moscow, so, won't be another opportunity like this

Hi,

weather prediction looks good for Saturday morning :D :D

A change is predicted for late in the day on Saturday, but the start is meant to be fine. Max temp is around 28C.

That means the sunrise shoot will be happening, so it will be an early start :twisted: :twisted:

As sheepie mentioned earlier, probably need to be there about half an hour prior to sunrise, so that makes it 5:15AM at the Redhead Surf Club.

For those that confirmed coming, I'll PM you my address and phone number details.

Cheers,

Radar

Hi Birddog,

you went a bit too far north there on BOM, with your DRP, you should know we are the Hunter Region :wink: :wink:

HUNTER
Thursday
Dangerous surf conditions on the coast.
Isolated showers and drizzle, clearing inland and contracting to the coast by afternoon. Mild. Moderate to fresh south to southeast winds, strong on the coast at first.

Friday
Fine, partly cloudy. Mild to warm. Light to moderate east to northeast winds.

Saturday
Isolated afternoon showers. Warm. Northwest to northeast winds.

Sunday
Isolated showers and thunderstorms. Warm. Northwest to southwest winds.



As you say, it will be warm. Currently max temp prediction is 29C, bring your sunscreen and a hat. The ocean breeze should be nice, until the southerly gets to us in the afternoon.

Sorry you won't be there, have fun on Friday at the RAAF and schoolies later on :cry: :cry:

cheers,
