Our current strong, large and building swell will peak overnight and ease over the coming days but there's plenty more activity on the way for next week.

Today's large, building S/SW groundswell will peak later and then ease over the coming days as winds improve. Another strong low is due on the weekend, but further north in position.

There’s a couple of swell sources on the synoptics right now. More in the Forecaster Notes.  

The main synoptic feature is a deep Southern Ocean low that's expected to *almost* bomb just W/SW of Tasmania. By ‘almost’, I mean ‘not quite reach the threshold requirements for a bombing low’, which is a 24hPa drop in 24 hours, though it certainly will come pretty close. More in the Forecaster Notes.
