KZN cranks this week in a glut of Tropical Storm and Cyclonic activity.

16 Jan - 23 Jan
Pick of the bunch:
KZN cranks this week
DBN:
The cyclone swell factory is open for business in KZN. Conservatively there will be swell everyday for at least a week, which will range between 4-6 ft. This could extend to 10 days depending on what else is brewing in the Indian Ocean. Right now the charts show a hive of Tropical Storm and Cyclonic activity. Tuesday morning looks like the day in Durban, but there will be so many waves over the next week or so you might want to think about pacing yourself!
COFFEE BAY:
Unbelievably Coffee Bay finally has a dodgy week of onshore, just to prove that it is not some kind of mystical surf haven created for the sole purpose of destroying our sanity.
EL:
You are going to be looking for scraps in amongst a mean streak of onshore this week.
PE:
Keep an eye on Thursday and Friday as the west switch and easterly swell may create a few options in the Bay.
CT:
It is pretty much flat and freezing on the Atlantic this week with some strong South Easterly winds around the peninsula. The best bet would probably be towards the end of the week in False Bay at spots that like the contour winds.
Got something to say? Then leave a comment!

i'm saedendd by the antagonistic attitudes of political opinion holders toward those with differences. Since both sides clearly hope for peace, security, human values and rights for all people, wouldn't it behoove us to FIRST treat one another with respect and concern for those same reasons and goal ? Are we so seeped in fear of change or the inevitable unknown' that we ourselves will not practice what we believe in ? Is there EVER a full guarantee of a smooth, easy future? Since there isn't, we're left with the choice, as difficult as it is: Do we trust the inherent need in all humanity for freedom and dignity and peace? Or do we succumb to fear and doubt- based prejudices against all who don't agree with us'? Who is us' and who are them'? Are we too scared to even find that out?

Well after 3 nihgts in the piss this week and me feeling rather hungover for most of the week, I can truly say Huey is a right bastard. This week would have to go down as one of the most consistent runs of sizey swell in the first week of October for some time ..and to think I didn't even get close to the beach for the whole time!!!!

I'm so glad you dedecid to link up this week, Heather!This is a really great list. Life tends to teach us the most in our most trying moments, and it sounds like this is no exception.I know that this move, along with other things, is very stressful for all of you, but I also think that there are great things for you down that road, and you seem so much happier in general in spite of the stress.The girls getting their own spaces will definitely let up some of your stress, I'm sure. It's hard to have everyone cramped up together!And your last one? I love that. :)

You are right that Mel Gibson msseis the point of the cross, which is not about how much torture Jesus could endure, but about shame. This is only one of MANY problems in his film.
