Very wintry looking synoptic chart as we exit autumn with a large high moving in over the continent with active cold fronts tied to low pressure systems tracking into the Tasman Sea. That pattern will extend through most of the week before a high cell drops into the Tasman Friday, with stronger frontal activity expected over the weekend and into next week.

The coming week is flukey for surf while next week looks XL and stormy.

Make the most of the current pumping surf before things go a little funky from the weekend and into next week.

We've got building surf and clean conditions for the coming period though peaking in darkness Sunday evening.
