The NZ high and a long monsoon trough has generated a useful fetch of tradewinds in the eastern swell window, which has maintained E’ly swells in the sub-tropics, E/NE in temperate regions.
A good swell is due Friday and Saturday morning, then slow ahead of more action later next week/weekend.
The NZ high has generated a useful fetch of tradewinds in the eastern swell window, which has maintained E’ly swells in the sub-tropics, E/NE in temperate regions. That trade fetch breaks down in the short term before rebuilding again at more Northern latitudes. We’ll see some frontal activity over the weekend before another strong, blocking high sets up a ridge next week.
The coming period will provide plenty of swell for the South Coast but with average winds until early next week.
There's no issue with swell over the coming period, it'll be a matter of working the local, varying winds and conditions.
Moderate sized swells this week, slower next week ahead of some more action the following weekend.
Pretty typical late Summer pattern with a high in the Tasman and a maturing trade-wind flow in the Coral Sea, linked to an active monsoon trough with a small embedded low in the Coral Sea. There is a tropical cyclone in the Gulf of Carpentaria which formed over the weekend but this system is expected to track inland over the NT and Kimberley regions and not be a swell source for the East Coast.
The coming days look smallish, with some better energy due from later Friday into the weekend.
Strong NE winds off the high are generating increasing swells for NETas.
The current building swell and windy conditions will improve through tomorrow as the sizes eases. A fun swell is due later week.
