OK, there’s a lot to unpack for the weekend. More in the Forecaster Notes.
Unfortunately, the latest model runs have narrowed the width of the responsible fetch - a post-frontal W/SW flow exiting eastern Bass Strait - and also tweaked its direction a little more zonally, away from our swell window. More in the Forecaster Notes.
Nothing of significance beyond our easing east swell besides a flukey south swell.
Plenty of swell inbound with strong and large groundswells from the SW and W/SW with favourable winds.
Plenty of swell inbound from later tomorrow, though winds from the northern quadrant will create a few issues at times.
Poor conditions over the coming days with building and strengthening surf, larger and improving from Sunday.
A return to great surf with an upgrade in swells and favourable winds.
The Tasman Low responsible for our current south swell is a fascinating system. More in the Forecaster Notes.
A great easing SE swell tomorrow and then new E/NE swell for Wednesday with offshore winds. Fading into the end of the week with a possible flukey S'ly swell.
A small S/SE swell for this week ahead of a new W/SW swell late week but with poor winds. Better into the weekend and more so next week.
