Doldrums pattern this week with all eyes on a TC next week for potential large swells

Weak high pressure in the Tasman and a trough is creating a “doldrums” type pattern of slack pressure gradients and small swells this week, with a few wind changes to negotiate. No major swells expected this week. The headline feature is a potential major tropical cyclone drifting into the Coral Sea with a poleward (southwards) track late this week, over the weekend and into next week.

Tiny weekend, possible cyclone swell next week

Further ahead and some weather model runs are starting to look pretty damn juicy with respect to a developing TC in the South Pacific moving into the Coral Sea  next week. Still very early days but a full blown cyclone swell is now a definite possibility, possibly as early as late next week and into the weekend.

Small surf continues but watching the South Pacific for potential TC intrusion into the Coral Sea
