No great change to the outlook as a tradewind fetch anchored by tropical low pressure near New Caledonia remains active before the low slides off to the SE later tomorrow and into Fri. We’ll see continuing tradeswells from this source.
The Mid Coast will be the pick of the period with small waves as the South Coast sees persistent onshore winds (apart from tomorrow).
Windows for a clean wave with the coming swells will be for those on the pulse.
Cyclone swells ahoy for both Indonesia and the Maldives.
Early mornings will be best over the coming period apart from the days that will be onshore from the get go.
The coming week looks good for surfing across the more exposed parts of the state.
Expect a peak in size over the next 48hrs then a slow ease off through the rest of the week and into the weekend.
A high pressure in the centre of the Tasman is directing SE-E winds across the sub-tropics, more NE in temperate regions extending down to the Island state. We’ll see more NE windswell episodes in the f/cast period.
Make the most of the clean waves down South before onshore winds kick in tomorrow and the Mid Coast becomes the focus.
High pressure support for the tropical systems which is currently anchoring a tradewind fetch in the Coral Sea weakens substantially over the short term, with E swell potential thus weakening. We’ll still see plenty of fun E’ly trade swell in the sub-tropics but the top end potential has taken a haircut as well as the duration of the event.
