The headline news is TC Dovi, which formed north-east of New Caledonia Wed a’noon and is moving SW at about 12 knots inside the Coral Sea. At 5am this morning TC Dovi was about 730 nautical miles E/NE of the Queensland border. That puts it in our swell window and although Dovi is currently Cat 3 it’s surf potential is limited by the compact fetch and expected increased speed of movement over the next 24 hrs.

The outlook is still a little mixed but the South Coast is the pick for the weekend with small Mid Coast waves next week.

A couple of flukey westerly swells before some more significant swell energy develops for early next week.

We've got good pulses of swell with decent winds over the coming period and plenty of options.
