Large inconsistent SW groundswell building Thursday, easing from Friday into the weekend. Smaller inconsistent S/SW groundswell for Monday, with some larger swell energy a possibility to end out the month.
Winds are now already fresh E’ly at Cape Byron which suggests the morning session may not bear much fruit in some areas, even with a reasonably solid swell in the water (however winds are light/variable elsewhere).
Easing S/SE groundswell tomorrow, with a fading NE windswell Wednesday and then new S/SE swell Thursday but with dicey winds. Cleaner Friday with a good S'ly and SE groundswell Saturday.
With today’s S/SE swell arriving a little earlier than expected, it’s fair to assume that we’ll probably see the backside of this event a little earlier than Friday’s forecast anticipated.
Small swells and poor winds most of the week. Large strong SW groundswell for Saturday with favourable winds, easing through Sunday and still clean.
Inconsistent but strong SW groundswell building tomorrow with fresh E/NE winds, easing Wednesday with stronger NE winds. Good S/SW groundswell Friday but with average onshore winds.
Small and Ok early tomorrow, onshore into the afternoon and through until Friday morning. Large strong swell for Saturday with favourable winds.
Small to tiny waves best east of Melbourne tomorrow, Surf Coast early Wednesday and then onshore until possibly Friday morning. Strong new swell Saturday with variable winds.
The swell models still have a very strong east swell progged for Saturday however as per Wednesday’s evaluation, I believe that it’s overcooking these heights, by combining two swell trains into one - a short range trade swell off the Coral Sea ridge, and a distant E’ly groundswell from a depression that formed NE of New Zealand earlier in the week.
Another strong front in the current progression has generated a new pulse that’ll push across the region Saturday morning.
