The coming period remains tricky with onshore winds at the peak of the swells, smallest and fading when clean.
Very slow outlook with S/SE-S swell across Indonesia.
The expected strong SE surge is captured by a trough and deepens into a surface low on Fri with small SE swell expected for the weekend in the 2ft range under fresh/strong S/SE winds.
The powerful surface low in the Northern Tasman this weekend is expected to send some quality E/NE swell down to NETas.
The coming period is very active with lots of options to work around.
Late in the week, a combination of inland upper trough and a long angled trough extending from TC Lola remnants is expected to form a powerful surface low off the sub-tropical NSW Coast (likely between Lord Howe and Norfolk Is). As modelled, gales will produce a large E’ly quadrant swell event, with maximum size in Northern NSW, grading smaller into temperate NSW. A secondary October surprise that looks to be a major swell producer.
The coming period remains slow but there are a couple of clean mornings with fun, small surf.

The coming week will be poor, windy and stormy until things improve and settle from later week.
The current swell will ease steadily as winds go onshore this afternoon, windy offshore tomorrow but gone. More swell with lots of wind is due mid-week.
