We’ve got a strong long period south swell moving into the North Coast this evening, that reached the southern half of NSW today and punched slightly above its weight (this swell was detected at the Crowdy Head buoy close to dusk).

The main increase in new south swell has been pushed back a little and should arrive overnight Saturday.

Only a handful of south swell magnets in Northern NSW will pick up stray 2ft sets at times, and with very long breaks between ‘em.

This spell of tiny waves is largely attributed to the Long Wave Trough, which is doing its intensification-thing south of the continent right now, and will concurrently dish out one of the biggest SA/Vicco/western Tassie swells of the year over the next four or five days.

Late Saturday, SE Qld will start to see a small increase in short range E’ly swell, generated by a brief dip in the trades across the southern Coral Sea over the previous twenty four hours.

We’re staring down the barrel of an extended period of small flukey swells for the East Coast, which should be manageable for exposed south facing locales in Northern NSW. But the prognosis doesn’t offer much hope for SE Qld surfers.

No major changes to the weekend forecast. However, we’ve now got two distinct pulses of swell on the cards and I reckon Sunday’s going to kick quite a few more goals than Saturday.

It’s hard to be confident just how far north this south swell will penetrate by late Friday - for surfing purposes at least - but right now it’s unlikely that we’ll see much activity north of the border. In fact I think that the northern extent of Friday’s (rapid) south swell increase will probably be about Yamba or maybe Ballina at a stretch.
