The large cyclone developing near Fiji at the moment looks quite impressive on the synoptics, but when you analyse the surface wind field, it’s a little more disappointing. More in the Forecaster Notes.
Plenty of swell but not the best conditions across the coast over the coming days. More potential next week.
Local winds over the coming period look to be the main issue. That and the lack of decent swell.
Smaller background mid-period SW energy over the coming days with cleaner conditions a couple of mornings.
Nothing to recommend surf wise over the coming period. Maybe take up kiteboarding.
Make the most of today as the coming period is plagued by onshore winds and average surf.
A large tropical cyclone is expected to develop north of Fiji over the coming days (it’s current tagged by JTWC as INVEST 93P) and the models have moved around on its future developments since Fridays notes were issued. More in the Forecaster Notes.
A bit of swell for the coming days but varying winds from south to north will create tricky conditions.
Fun waves over the coming days before onshore winds kick in and the swell drops out.
It’s hard to have confidence where we are with the current swell cycle. And this can affect the short term outlook quite a bit. More in the Forecaster Notes.
