Tricky end to the week, better weekend
Tricky end to the week, better weekend
Tomorrow looks OK but the weekend is much better for a surf across the region.

The only hope is some small E swell from a distant fetch which may see some rideable waves ta spots exposed to the Capricorn to Breaksea Spit channel opening. We’ll see some potential 1-2ft surf through Thurs/Fri and Sat from that source.
It’s an impressive fetch with severe gale to storm force winds in a wide band moving NE, only offset by winds being not perfectly aimed up the pipe.
A strong cold outbreak has led to the formation of a winter-calibre low in the Tasman (984hPa), backed by a strong, slow moving high in the Bight. We’re seeing the formation of strong S swells from this system, which will peak tomorrow then ease with a following front and deep low well to the south providing a strong S groundswell over the weekend under light winds.
The coming outlook contains lots of north wind and tricky west swells.

The coming days look average with better surf due into the weekend.
The coming period will be slow swell wise with warmer temperatures ahead of a cold snap next Tuesday/Wednesday.
Increasing swell activity later this week and into next.
On Tuesday morning, a cold front will cross the Southern NSW coast, and a new low pressure system will then develop in the central/southern Tasman Sea during the day, strengthening overnight and stalling by Wednesday into a deep Tasman Low, a real beauty.
