The weekend’s easing trend now looks like it’ll occur more slowly than previously though, though it’ll be steadily down nonetheless.
We’ve got some great waves ahead this weekend, and the good news is that winds are expected to remain light both days.
This swell will show best through Friday.
Friday’s late kick in large S/SE swell will peak overnight before easing steadily through Saturday, which is currently the highlight of the forecast period.
Let’s take a closer look on Wednesday to assess the chance of their being periods of good winds on Thursday and Friday to capitalise on.
The weekend looks really interesting. A series of new long period groundswells are expected to arrive, generated by a very intense series of fronts currently developing near Heard Island.
Late Thursday, a new W/SW swell is expected to push through, providing energy for Friday morning.
There are no new swell sources in the water for the next few days, so we can expect a continuation of this extremely inconsistent but otherwise fun E’ly swell over the weekend, sourced from a distant, retreating fetch in the South Pacific south of Fiji earlier in the week.
Very inconsistent NE swell tomorrow with less than ideal winds, cleaner and fading Sunday. No major surf next week.
Clean conditions all weekend with an easing W/SW swell tomorrow, tiny Sunday. Weak S/SW swell for Monday with a better SW groundswell Wednesday.
