A powerful front and low forming near Tasmania drives gales up from the Bight over the inland of the SE of the continent, then re-enters the Tasman as SW gales to severe gales early Sat morning.
Winds shift W’ly as the initial frontal system sweeps across NSW tomorrow, with a stronger front and low moving up over NSW and then entering the Tasman with a vengeance into the weekend. We’ve still got some E’ly swell inbound from a retreating low which fired up as it approached the North Island.

We’re entering a windy wintry pattern for the next week or so, but the surf outlook isn't great for the South Arm.
A new polar low will develop at very low latitudes on Wednesday, before rocketing up to the north-east, wrapping around the primary mid-latitude low on Thursday, reaching the SA coast sometime on Friday with gale force W/NW tending SW winds.
We’re entering a windy wintry pattern for the next week or so, and there’s a bunch of interesting swells on the boil.
A large high (1036hPa) sits well to the west of the state and slowly moves towards the state while exerting a blocking pattern on upstream low pressure systems compared to the near past.
High pressure is moving up over QLD and E’ly winds are deserting the Coral Sea. That will see a period of tiny/flat winter-style surf set in this week and into the weekend.
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.
