The swell and wind outlook for next week looks promising at first glance - but I see a lot of potential for disappointment across vast swathes of SE Qld and Northern NSW, because of the size and direction. More in the Forecaster Notes.
A stronger cold front will push into the lower Tasman Sea later Sunday, and a long fetch trailing behind will generate an extended period of large S’ly groundswell for Southern NSW. More in the Forecaster Notes.
A couple of flukey S'ly swells over the coming days ahead of a more reliable and larger S'ly swell early next week.
Nothing to recommend until the surf increases through the middle of the forecast period, coming in with size and power.
A new large W/SW groundswell tomorrow but with average winds in the South West, finally swinging offshore from Friday with good, fun sized swells to follow.
A flurry of strong mid-latitude and polar fronts will bring lots of wind and surf over the coming period.
Building windy surf over the coming days, large Saturday, with a secondary bigger swell to follow up.
Punchy options at open stretches will trend smaller throughout the week, but offer fun clean waves through into the weekend. More in the Forecaster Notes.
Our long run of E/NE swell - which kicked off last weekend - will slowly fade over the next few days, however the main feature on the forecast this week is an intense polar low that developed well SW of New Zealand over the weekend. More in the Forecaster Notes.
Small waves for the coming period until we see more activity out of the south early next week.
