At present these areas create weak low pressure off the CQ coast, that may see some slight E swell into the weekend.

High pressure is moving eastwards, dragging the trade fetch with it. Weak high pressure moves into the Tasman later this week. No major swells this week, so we’ll be relying on our persistent trade-swell, which looks to ease back to tiny/flat mid-week as the fetch retreats eastwards.

High pressure remains a constant in the Tasman, with a reinforcing cell ready to slide under Tasmania late week. A heat low over NW Australia and trough are linked to a cut-off low in the Bight which gets squeezed out by high pressure. As a result workable trade swells for the sub-tropics continue through this week.

That will be the dominant feature of our synoptic set-up for some time, which sees high pressure in the Tasman and a firm ridge up the sub-tropical coast and broad fetch of E-E/SE winds in the Coral Sea.
