Monday looks even juicier. An approaching trough of low pressure tightens pressure gradients and the fetch really winds up in the swell window.

Strong high pressure (1035 hPa) is now moving SE of Tasmania with an embedded trough along the advancing ridge ramping up wind speeds from the SSE-SE into the 20kts+ range. Conditions should settle as the high moves into the Tasman and weakens and the ridge relaxes through the end of the week. The high is augmenting an existing SE-ESE tradewind fetch through the Northern Tasman and Coral Seas and maintaining small E-SE swell.

Winds will be offshore to end the week but the surf will be tiny and fading. Some fun W/SW swell is due on the weekend.

Get out on the beaches today before the swell fades. The weekend should offer a window of fun waves on the beaches before a strong change hits.
