Only small surf this weekend, though conditions should be clean with mainly light winds.

There's nothing of any great interest for the next few days.

And this forms the crux for the initial short term forecasting decision - how much size will hold true overnight?

Yep, we’ve still got a cracking S/SE thru’ SE groundswell on the way for Monday.

Sunday looks better on the surface and although swell potential is mixed, we should see some fun waves.

My hopes for a decent pulse from this developing Tasman Low have been dashed.

Well, it’s taken a few more days than that but we do have a complex, existing synoptic chart appearing next week.

The Tasman Low responsible for the last few days of southerly swell is still positioned nicely within our SE swell window.

Today's new south swell has built a little more slowly than Friday’s notes anticipated, but I’m not revising my forecast size from this event.

We’ve shifted from a scenario on Wednesday where TC Donna was expected to remain completely outside of our swell window (Wednesday night's model run) due to the swell shadow afforded by New Caledonia, to a situation where it's now a possible swell generator for many parts of the East Coast (Friday morning's run).
