Sun is a different story as strong, long period S swells from a storm force system in the Southern Ocean make landfall.
In the mix will be some inconsistent E swell from TC Mal’s run through the swell window. It accelerated as it hit the swell window so a slight winding back in size is justified but we’ll still see some defined sets in the 3 occ. 4ft range through Sat morning, easing during the day.
A trough will bring funky winds when a large S/SW groundswell peaks this weekend.
The outlook remains average with no sizey swells and strong morning winds.
Strong, long period S’ly groundswell should be peaking Mon morning, before an easing trend through the day.
Conditions are looking a little better tomorrow morning while Sunday's large swell will still be wind affected.
There's been an improvement in the wind forecast for the weekend with a large S/SW groundswell still due.
In addition a quick pulse of E/SE swell from TC Mal as it races through the swell window is expected Sat into with some 2ft sets.
Another deep low is expected to bomb under the continent and send more long period groundswell our way late this weekend under a continuing unstable, trough pattern.
TC Mal enters the swell window later today and we may see some small E/NE swell Sat. The TC moves at angles to the swell window which is not good for swell production but there are winds to 60kts as it enters the swell window o/night so we can expect some bigger 4ft sets with rogue 5ft sets a real possibility.
