From mid next week we should see action return to the south as fronts push into the Tasman.
The outlook remains slow with small to tiny west swells due until later next week.
A new strong low formed in the Indian will change wind patterns and produce a new swell.
Model divergence remains pronounced for the outcomes from this, with GFS still suggesting some kind of trough/easterly dip and enhanced E’ly swells. The European model has a more subdued outlook with a weaker high and trade-wind band remaining further north in line with seasonal norms.
The coming period will be cleanest across the South Coast with plenty of activity inbound.

A solid westerly swell is due tomorrow, best in protected spots which will be smaller and slower. Easing surf as winds shift more northerly is expected for the rest of the week.
A few good days up north with one window at the South West early week.
We've go a stellar run of conditions but generally tiny surf this period.
On it’s own that will see a broad E’ly fetch develop likely in the New Caledonia quadrant, extending into the South Pacific slot. GFS adds to that recipe for a round of (sizey) trade swell with a deepening trough in the Coral Sea which spawns a surface low mid week, currently modelled to track southwards into the Tasman.
