The front responsible for today’s cool change isn’t really that beneficial for our immediate surf prospects.
The coming week looks to be the best of the period.
Multiple swell pulses with favourable winds are due this period.
The front responsible for today’s large southerly swell has already exited our swell window, so we’re looking at a steady drop in size from Tuesday onwards.
The coming week isn't great for the metro locations, better in the South West.
The coming days look best for the South Coast but watch out for a possible algal slick.
There'll be plenty of opportunities for a surf over the coming days ahead of onshore breezes from Friday.
A new long period groundswell is then expected to rebuild into Wednesday, sourced from an intense polar low skirting the ice shelf on Sunday.
We’ve got a solid run of autumn swell lining up for the state next week, thanks to a powerful conveyor belt of Southern Ocean fronts and lows generating overlapping groundswells that’ll arrive from Sunday thru’ Friday.
As stated on Wed, the Indian Ocean is quite active with a long fetch of W’ly gales currently SW of the state and moving E. That will supply reinforcing pulses of SW swell later in the weekend into Mon .
