The blocking high has established quite a healthy trade flow through the Northern down to Central Coral Sea and extending out to New Caledonia. Current ASCAT (satellite windspeed) passes show a broad coverage of 20kt+ winds through this zone with CQ observations confirming 2-3ft surf.
More NE windswell is on the menu likely Thurs as a front approaches and N’ly winds freshen off Southern NSW.

We've got a couple of windows of cleaner conditions for the South West this period.
We've got a shift in the wind pattern as a front clips us, bringing cleaner conditions and fun swells for the Mid Coast on the weekend.
Blocking high pressure in the Central Tasman has a ridge up the QLD Coast, with weak pressure gradients across NSW leading to pre-frontal N-NW winds. Not much surf on offer either day.
We should see swells of increasing size, consistency and power through the weekend with good to great winds for the most part.
Large surf today, easing into the weekend ahead of lots of activity mid-late next week.
The high pressure cell develops a healthy trade-wind flow through the Coral Sea into this weekend, generating fun waves from the E/SE from Thurs. It’s quite a persistent pattern, breaking down mid next week.
