Most of the long term synoptic activity will occur in the South Pacific as a series of tropical lows pull off the monsoon trough.

We’re looking at an early peak in S’ly swell and then a later peak in E’ly swell from the remnants of TC Fehi, probably around the middle of the day.

This is expected to rapidly strengthen a broad E’ly fetch in our prime swell window, and will generate a solid E’ly swell that’s expected to push through for Wednesday, ahead of a peak in size on Thursday.

After the last few days, the next few are relatively straight forward from a forecasting point of view - it’s downwards.
