The mid-latitude low is moving in from the west while weakening, with easing winds and swell over the coming days. The weekend looks great for the South Coast.

Today's strong swell will fade into the weekend ahead of stormy surf mid-next week.

Some small E’ly tradeswell is also likely to build into the first week of winter as an E’ly fetch builds across the Coral Sea, suggesting a round of fun surf for CQ.

We’ll see plenty of residual swell from this low-carb nor-easter, with a slow easing trend over the weekend, more pronounced into next week.
