Good long-period groundswells through this period, largest over the weekend.
We’ve got a multitude of small swell source inbound (long range E’ly, short range S/SE) but the most dominant swell trains over the coming days will be a series of overlapping southerly swells generated by strong, though poorly aligned frontal activity through the Southern Tasman Sea.
Good S'ly groundswell through this week, easing with a small N/NE windswell in the mix later week.
We’ve got a series of overlapping southerly swells due over the coming days, generated by strong, though poorly aligned frontal activity through the Southern Tasman Sea.
Good pulses of swell over the coming days as winds improve. Lots of activity into next week.
Strong W/SW groundswell tomorrow but with generally average winds besides a small window to the north. Long-range swell to end the week as winds improve and fun waves from the weekend and into next week.
Smaller S/SW swells over the coming days with improving winds, average to end the week and better, stronger swells from the weekend and more so next week.
Improving winds with a fun pulse of S/SW swell through the week, fading towards the weekend, with some weak new swell Saturday, stronger and more active from Sunday and into next week.
So, with three distinct swell trains in the water - none of which are being picked up very well by the global wave models - I reckon you’ll do pretty well at most open beaches.
We’ve got a tricky weekend ahead, though there is plenty of potential.
