Very La Niña-esque synoptic pattern with a strong 1035hPa high sitting in the Tasman directing an E’ly flow into a coastal trough stretched from Central QLD to the South Coast NSW.
We’ll see the NE’ly flow continue to develop in the Northern Tasman and Coral Seas through this week, with swells from that E-NE quadrant building through this short term period under an onshore flow.

The first will nose into Storm Bay early Tuesday, but probably not show properly until lunch time, with a second swell filling in behind on Wednesday.
The early stages of these fronts have generated some new groundswell that will slowly build in size through Thursday (starting off small) and then into Friday ahead of a peak in size on Saturday morning.
A deepening, complex polar low then spins off multiple fronts all slingshotting NE on an active sea state.
We’ve got a bit of a slow period ahead, though there are a few small swells due over the next few days that are worth capitalising on.
Once the high sets up the ridge we’ll see onshore winds and a deep E’ly flow through the Northern Tasman and Coral Seas.
The dominant player is a massive high moving through the Bight and expected to drift over and eastwards of Tasmania tomorrow to occupy the Tasman for most of the week.
