These low centres are focussing areas of E’ly to NE’ly infeed along the trough line- perfectly aimed at east coast targets all the way down to Tasmania.

Surf-wise, whatever configuration of low pressure we end up getting, a broad E’ly infeed in the Southern Coral Sea and Northern Tasman as well as one off the South Coast aimed at Tasmania will generate plenty of E/NE’ly swell into early-mid week.

We’ll see the NE’ly flow continue to develop in the Northern Tasman and Coral Seas through this week, with swells from that E-NE quadrant building through this short term period under an onshore flow.

The dominant player is a massive high moving through the Bight and expected to drift over and eastwards of Tasmania tomorrow to occupy the Tasman for most of the week.

The weekend’s fronts and lows sweeping up from the south look to consolidate early next week into a much stronger system, backed by a strong high in the Bight.

We should see some better quality, albeit small E/NE swell later next week from a new sub-tropical low which forms this weekend and then drifts out towards the North Island.
