Week NE windswells are on the cards in the short term, however the main focus is E/NE windswll generated by Severe Tropical Cyclone Victor. This swell is looking fun for open beaches right up until early next week with sets forecast to move into the 3-4ft range over the weekend.

We are looking at a modest but workable SE swell on Tuesday morning, but the real excitement comes from Ula's bigger brother Victor which has the potential to deliver inconsistent 3-4ft sets by the weekend.

Southeasterly breezes will make it tricky to find a decent wave over the weekend, improving with time. Monday's southeasterly swell has now been delayed and severely downgraded. Thursday brings the next best chance of a fun, clean northeasterly windswell.

Hot northwesterly breezes are likely to keep conditions clean on Thursday, before a gusty southerly buster rips up the coast generating a sizey, low quality windswell for Friday. Persistent southerlies are likely to limit options to open beaches over the better part of the weekend, improving slightly on Sunday. Monday and Tuesday are looking good for a fun southeasterly swell of a developing Tasman low.

Conditions will be clean each morning of the weekend with residual swell from today and a fresh southelry groundswell moving in late Saturday afternoon. If this doesn't suit, have a sniff around a south facing beach on Saturday afternoon as the swell builds.

No shortage of swell generators in the coming week, however winds will be the limiting factor. Large SE swell initially, mixed in with long range E/NE mid week. Finally, S'ly groundswell late in the week.

A new E’ly swell is expected to fill into the region throughout Saturday. There may be a slight lag at dawn (read: small leftover surf) but otherwise we should see an upwards trend all morning ahead of a peak in the afternoon.

Looks like a very active weekend ahead of all East Coast surfers. In fact the next week and half should produce an extended period of excellent waves for many locations.
