Some powerful but zonal frontal activity will cross the far lower Tasman and send some long period S swell up the Tasman Sea pipe, some of which will wrap into the NSW Coast. Another frontal system then pushes into the Tasman Sea later this week and into the weekend. A typical winter week.
Favourable winds with a strong, large mix of groundswells for the coming days, easing into the end of the week with a window to the east.
The weekend will be generally small and best tomorrow ahead of onshore winds Sunday. Next week will see large surf develop.
There's plenty of swell inbound with favourable winds this weekend, a little more restricting early next week.
We’re looking at a complex, dynamic week ahead with a strong high moving across from the Bight and a coastal trough moving up the Eastern Seaboard expected to form a broad surface low off the Fraser/K’gari coast
Sun still looks great. A Cook Strait fetch should generate a good pulse of E'ly swell, easing through the day.
We've got plenty of surfing options across both coasts this period with a strong mix of groundswells early next week.
Fridays S’ly change is linked to a robust front (and long angular trough of low pressure in the Tasman) and the northwards intrusion into the Tasman will bring plenty of directional S swell- up into the 4-5ft range at S facing beaches in NENSW, smaller 2ft in SEQLD.
Fridays S’ly change is linked to a robust front (and long angular trough of low pressure in the Tasman) and the northwards intrusion into the Tasman will bring plenty of directional S swell- up into the 4-5ft range at S facing beaches, bigger 6ft at least, on the Hunter
The current swell episode is west and slow so patience is key. Next week looks much better and larger.
