A trough of low pressure associated with the current sub-tropical low deepens rapidly through tomorrow in response to the influx of cold air, forming a storm force low pressure system off the NSW Central Coast overnight Thursday into Friday.
The coming period will see plenty of surf but poor conditions for the South Coast and generally tiny waves on the Mid Coast.
Poor conditions over the coming days with plenty of swell but strong, persistent south-east winds.
The weekend looks juicy. Whilst the Tasman low is not ideally aimed at Tasmania, E to SE winds feeding into the low are expected to generate a strong E’ly swell for the NE Coast.
There'll be nowhere to really recommend with this run of wind and swell. Maybe try the East Coast forecast.
For the rest of the week, we’ll see a monster low in the Tasman Sea, but this will be well out of the CQ swell window, leading to tiny/flat surf and light winds for the rest of this week.
A fun swell through the middle of the week with plenty of offshore wind. Working the swell pulses and winds will be key.
The northern end of the coastal trough system is expected to deepen into a surface low through tonight into tomorrow, off the SEQLD coast, moving south through Wednesday.
A good swell will be spoilt by a return of strong and gusty S/SE-SE winds. The Mid Coast will be clean but minimal in size.
OK, it’s going to be a wild week so lets look at the moving parts and sketch out the order of events, whilst acknowledging that it will be a highly dynamic outlook requiring fine tuning as the troughs, front, upper trough and expected eventual storm force surface low all interact.
