No real change to the forecast issued Monday, except for one slight adjustment to the timing - everything’s been shunted back a half day or so.

We have a dynamic period ahead and the end of the week through the weekend and even beyond looks mighty fine.

If you’ve got something other than surfing to do this weekend, give it a nudge. It’s been a very generous month of waves so far anyway.

With favourably light winds it’ll be well worth capitalising on a great day of surf for Australia Day.

Probably the most difficult thing about long range east swells is that we have no way of monitoring their status.

Yes, the forecast outlook is very complex. Let’s get stuck right into it.

Thursday will herald the leading edge of a long range E’ly swell that’s expected to dominate our region for some time

We have a relatively linear outlook for the weekend.

Thursday is also expected to see a new, building long period S/SE swell all day, generated by an intense polar low that formed off the ice shelf over the weekend. But, the erratic swell source (possibly contaminated by Antartican ice floes) and enormous travel distance guarantees a couple of things: very inconsistent set waves, and low confidence for any notable surf.
