Weak high pressure sits in the Tasman now, maintaining a NE flow across NETas as a trough and front approach from the W and SW, bringing a S’ly change today. S’ly winds and swell quickly build in the wake of the trough.
Poor surf tomorrow, easing Friday but cleaning up ahead of a good SW groundswell Saturday.
The Monsoon trough remains active but low-pressure systems budding off the trough line slide away to the SE in the absence of a strong supporting high, reducing surf potential until a system stalls near New Caledonia over the weekend/early next week.
Clean conditions each morning to end off the week but with small, fading surf. A good groundswell is due early next week but with average winds.
Persistent onshore winds will create poor conditions down South while there'll be no decent swells for the Mid Coast besides a tiny pulse later today and tomorrow morning.
Weak high pressure sits in the Tasman now, directing freshening NE winds across the Central/Southern NSW Coast as a trough and front approach from the W and SW. The trough will bring a robust S’ly change to the NSW Coast through Thurs, extending up into the sub-tropics during Fri. S’ly winds and swell quickly build in the wake of the trough.
The coming period isn't a total write-off but set your bar low and target the east.
Clean easing surf tomorrow morning, with a change moving through Wednesday, holding Thursday and improving Friday. A good sized swell is due on the weekend.
No great change to the outlook with plenty of rideable surf expected. A high moving into the Tasman is bolstering tradewind flows in the Coral Sea and supplying plenty of surf in the 1-2ft range across CQ under mod/fresh SE winds.
We’re in a bit of Groundhog Day pattern with another moderate high (1027hPa) moving into the Tasman, directing onshore winds across the Eastern Tasmania. These winds are tending NE before a stiff S’ly change Wed as a trough pushes through, tied to a front and low in the lower Tasman.
