Onshore winds and weak windswells to end the week, better Saturday on the Surf Coast, and then on the Mornington Peninsula Sunday. Long-range W/SW groundswell for Monday with westerly winds.
Large E/SE swell tomorrow, easing into Wednesday with a final pulse of E'ly groundswel Thursday. Clean conditions each morning.
Easing SE swell with light winds tomorrow morning, tiny Wednesday. Small swell Friday afternoon with developing onshore winds, hanging in Saturday but remaining onshore.
Easing swell with slowly improving winds over the coming days. Good strong swell building Thursday afternoon with a larger and more powerful swell for Sunday with generally light winds at this stage.
The long and short of this pattern is that SE Qld will remain very small for much of the outlook period.
Easing swell with offshore winds tomorrow, smaller and fading Wednesday. New mix of swells for Saturday as winds swing back offshore, easing Sunday and remaining clean.
The weather charts are very complex for the entire eastern seaboard.
Small easing surf with favourable winds for locations east of Melbourne until an onshore change develops Thursday morning. Small fun Surf Coast Saturday and then a touch better next week.
In Northern NSW, the south swell we saw today will ease throughout the morning but a new south swell will build concurrently, arriving across the Mid North Coast early.
West Australian Surf Forecast by Guy Dixon (issued Friday 28th August)
Best Days: Wednesday, Thursday
Recap:
Conditions were great on Thursday with solid 6ft surf across the South West with a few 8ft bombs thrown in for good measure. Light easterly winds were keeping everything in order making for a long day of epic waves. Further north, conditions were clean under light offshore breezes but the surf was lacking in the size department, maxing out at around 1-1.5ft.
