This week and weekend (Jul 25 - 28)

Unfortunately there's still no significant surf on the cards for our coast until early next week (the small E swell for the weekend now looks tiny) with a surface trough moving in from the west due to slide up past us Monday evening.

A fetch of strong to possibly gale-force S/SE winds are forecast to be generated in our southern and south-eastern swell windows, kicking up a moderate sized pulse of S/SE swell Tuesday, easing from the SE Wednesday.

The latest GFS update as a Tasman Low forming resulting in a more prolonged and strengthened E/SE swell event into the end of the week (we'll have to keep an eye on this).

Size wise, Tuesday looks to build to 3ft+ but with poor and fresh S'ly winds, easing from 3-4ft Wednesday morning as winds relax a little and tend more S/SW in the morning. Cleaner conditions and a touch smaller swell likely pads out the rest of the week, but more on this Friday.
