The broad trade pattern supplying the weekend’s swell source will become enhanced over the coming days as a tropical low between New Caledonia and Fiji this weekend squeezes the synoptic flow.
A quick scan of the hindcast charts shows a phenomenal polar low well SE of New Zealand, generating a Code Red swell for Tahiti - but it’s just on the periphery of our flukey SE swell window and will probably generate some small intermittent sideband energy.
There's nothing major on the cards this week with a small swells to pick at.
A slow period with tiny surf on the weekend and small, westerly swells next week.
Light winds and easing surf on the weekend ahead of some new swell Monday and stronger XL groundswell Tuesday.
A bit of wind but tons of swell inbound from the west and south west, cleanest on the South Coast over the coming days.
We've got building surf over the coming period, smallest and weakest tomorrow, larger into later next week but as onshore winds move in.
More large surf is expected early next week, as a conveyer belt of powerful frontal systems set up across the Southern Ocean later this week.
We’ve got a week of solid, occasionally windy conditions ahead as more fronts push on to the coast and the Southern Ocean conveyer belt delivers a series of powerful back-to-back groundswells.
Those Tradewinds will be too far north for Tas at least in the short term but increasing NE winds off the NSW South Coast will see surf peak around 2-3ft+ through Thurs.
