There are a couple of decent windows for cleaner surf with the large easing swell on the weekend though Sunday is the pick.

No change to the outlook this week with N’ly flow down the Coral Sea and tiny/flat surf expected.

The unstable pattern continues with a small trough of low pressure lingering off the Central NSW Coast, linked to tropical cloud bands and moisture streaming in from the Northern Monsoon. A weak front is crossing Tas with a trough forming t the NE of the state. A large, winter-calibre mid-latitude low approaches from the W and becomes slow moving as it passes the state Fri/Sat.

Cold weather with strong onshore winds and an oversized swell developing on the South Coast later week. Winds will slowly ease all weekend as the swell eases.
