Not a great deal of action on the charts to start the last week of Winter. A strong high (1040hPa)  is on the other side of New Zealand but pressure gradients in the Tasman are weak, with minimal swell energy being generated from that source. Later in the week, Tradewinds do poke their head up over New Zealand and generate some useful E swell.

N’ly winds are freshening ahead of a trough which is drawing down more moisture from the Indian Ocean and brings a  S’ly change mid-week and a small pulse in S swell.

We've got a delay in the change in winds due this afternoon, shifted to midday tomorrow. There are plenty of surfing options for the coming week.

Bit of a slow weekend ahead, with easing southerly swells for Saturday becoming very small into Sunday.
