That will lead to elevated surf from the SE-E for most of next week with just a very slow, gradual tapering off as the fetch slowly weakens while remaining basically semi-stationary.
We've got building swell energy with favourable winds.
Make the most of the favourable winds before oversized, stormy surf kicks in from the weekend.
E’ly gales in a broad fetch remain into the new week with a massive high new New Zealand (1042hPa) acting as supporting cradle for the Tasman low which will be drifting eastwards to a slot north of the North Island.
Conditions are expected to be mostly lumpy to end the week, improving slowly over the weekend. Next week looks large out of the west.
Winds will mostly spoil the surf over the coming days, improving from Sunday. Next week looks interesting from Wednesday.
Upgrade in swell for tomorrow, large pulses next week.
It’s a real monster of a system and we may see some long range SE-E/SE swell at spots open to the north of k’gari and the Breaksea spit with some 2-3ft sets through Tues and Wed.
That low looks to be a monster of a system. As the deep low moves eastwards towards the North Island it aims up gales to severe gales back towards the east coast and we’re on track to receive some powerful swell from the E/NE through next week.
Tomorrow and Wednesday will be mostly poor, better from Friday.
