A little bit of action by the weekend
A little bit of action by the weekend
Not much in the way of swell generating wind in the Coral Sea short term so expect tiny/flat conditions for most of the week. Eventually the high pressure cell builds a tradewind fetch in the Coral Sea, likely by Fri, with surf building to rideable levels on Sat and likely extending into Sun.

We’ll see the trough bring S’ly winds and swell as it moves up the NSW Coast through the first half of this week. That will mostly obscure some traces of long period S swell pushing up the Tasman, generated by a large polar low.

There's plenty of swell inbound with generally favourable winds.

We’ll see the trough bring onshore winds and swell as it moves up the NSW Coast through the first half of this week. That will mostly obscure some traces of long period S swell pushing up the Tasman. A distant low in the South Pacific currently in Tongan latitudes will send some small but good quality E’ly swell late this week, with more favourable winds.

We’ve got a more subdued synoptic outlook this week with weak high pressure currently in the Tasman and a complex troughy area of low pressure situated off the Southern NSW/Gippsland coast. That trough moves NE, backed by a large high pressure centre currently in the Bight. We’ll see the trough bring onshore winds and swell as it moves up the NSW Coast through the first half of this week.
Wishy washy days, best later week

The coming days will have swell but conditions look very average, better later week.
Solid weekend of clean, easing surf, next week looks flukey

We’ve already reached the peak of this impressive event and so we’re looking at a steady drop in size both Saturday and Sunday.
