Heads up for those going to or planning on camping the coastal areas right on the beach, D.I. Fraser etc, might pay to be a bit higher up in the dunes http://www.bom.gov.au/qld/warnings/

Yep, that swell has stopped the Sunshine Coast. The industrial estate I work in is a PIA to find a park in, not today  :D It's dead.

I'd say the beach roads from Moffat right through to Northshore will be littered with tradie utes right now  ;D

Already a massive line up at the Noosa ferry apparently.

Went down to North Burleigh & had a look yesterday arvo.

Pretty wild & woolly out there but certainly not the 4.5m that they were talking about.

Some swells / waves got tracked at about the 5.5m mark on the waverider buoy about lunch time yesterday,  but most were sub 4m . ..
Wonder how Fraser / Rainbow beach and D.I. Have held up, bloody surf cams been down best part of a month .

Spending the day at coochie
Have the beach, lifeguards and not many crowds
Bit windy but you get that, water is s nice temp and better than being at home or looking at the surf and not being able to swim
