The more intense action will be in the sub-tropics with potential for a trough of low pressure to form off the CQ coast, potentially deepening into a hybrid sub-tropical low later next week. That looks to generate large swells for the SEQLD/NENSW Points for the most part.
By Wed we’ll see a pattern change as a strong high pressure belt straddles Tasmania and we start to see the influence of a trough associated with the monsoon off the QLD Coast.
The weekend will be generally small with strong winds tomorrow ahead of a change. There's plenty of swell due next week but with generally average conditions.
There's only a small window of favourable conditions for this period, so make the most of it. The Surf Coast should see good surf developing again early-mid next week.
Fun surf tomorrow with an easing S/SW swell, with plenty of action from Sunday afternoon but with tricky winds.
Poor winds and weak swells to end the week and start the weekend. We should see better surf developing from Sunday and into next week.
We’ve had the entrees for this S swell event and we’re now close to the main course with a deep low (977hPa) and gales tracking NE into the Tasman from behind Tasmania, with the largest swell trains already peaking across NETas.
It now looks like we are seeing more action start up from the tropics with a cross-equatorial surge and monsoonal flow across Northern Australia into the Coral Sea. Vorticity along this surge and trough line may see low pressure develop in our swell window later next week.
We’ve had the entrees for this S swell event and we’re now close to the main course with a deep low (977hPa) and gales tracking NE into the Tasman from behind Tasmania. These gales are on track to deliver the juiciest pulse of this event through tomorrow, with weak high pressure moving over NSW.
A stronger pulse of S'ly groundswell later today will ease into the end of the week with better winds for the South Coast. Next week looks active but with dicey winds.
