Backed by a strong high we’ll see very tight coastal pressure gradients with strong to potentially gale force S’lies Sat and a large windy S swell.

Strong swell pulses with great conditions are due over the coming days, turning to mud next week.

We’ll see some small SE swell as the new high pressure ridge builds windfield in the Coral Sea and Northern Tasman but this will be smaller and weaker than previous swells of this ilk.

A much stronger and more aggressive frontal intrusion Fri looks to see S swell spike in the a’noon with tiny surf building rapidly into the evening.
