While all of this is going on, Tropical Cyclone Cook will have crossed New Caledonia, reentered the lower Coral Sea under a SW track but then recurved to the SE, towards New Zealand. This cyclone looks really impressive with surface winds upwards of 85kts, however there are several limiting factors that will impact surf size for us.
A new SW swell should build through tomorrow with offshore winds through the morning, smaller Wednesday with a small window of light winds. S/SW swell will fill in for Thursday through the weekend with varying conditions.
