No change to the weekend f/cast. E/NE swell across our region continues as the main body of the fetch remains aimed at sub-tropical targets. The high in the Tasman is maintaining a moderate onshore SE flow which is favouring the protected Points.
No change to the weekend f/cast. E/NE swell across temperate NSW is continuing to be a bit weak and under-sized as the main body of the fetch remains further north and aimed at sub-tropical targets. The high in the Tasman is maintaining an onshore flow along the NSW Coast.
The coming period isn't too great with a couple of small swells set to be ruined by local winds.
Protected spots will fare best on the weekend, though be smaller. More options open up next week.
Each morning over the coming days will provide cleaner conditions down South, best Sunday with poor S-S/SE winds into next week but with fun levels of W/SW swell.
Fun swells with clean conditions for the beaches over the coming days before poor winds kick in next week.
The building blocks for a classic Summer monsoonal pattern are now firmly in place and almost the entire Eastern Seaboard from the Tropic of Capricorn to Tasmania is going receive swell as a result of it.

A dual-centred high straddles New Zealand with an elongated monsoonal low pressure trough located in the Coral Sea and extending into the near South Pacific. This is creating a long and broad E’ly fetch which is slowly extending southwards. As we near the end of the week, a more discrete surface low hives off the end of the monsoonal low pressure trough and retrogrades back into the Tasman Sea as it intensifies, generating large E’ly swells over the last days of 2022 and first days of 2023.
Generally small surf over the coming period with deteriorating and strengthening winds.
