Today is the pick of the period before winds go funky over the coming days.

We’ve got a more subdued synoptic outlook this week with weak high pressure currently in the Tasman and a complex troughy area of low pressure situated off the Southern NSW/Gippsland coast. That trough moves NE, backed by a large high pressure centre currently in the Bight. We’ll see the trough bring onshore winds and swell as it moves up the NSW Coast through the first half of this week.

We’ve already reached the peak of this impressive event and so we’re looking at a steady drop in size both Saturday and Sunday.

It's large and windy this afternoon but the weekend looks great as the current swell eases steadily.
