Current weak winds in the Coral Sea are leading to tiny/flat surf and this is expected to continue over the weekend.
A powerful low below the continent this weekend promises a flukey south groundswell while we should see a notch more short period E/NE swell next week from a slow moving trough/low in the Tasman.
S groundswell is still on the radar as a slow moving polar low tied to Fridays front skirts the southern edge of the swell window, over the weekend.

A polar low flares up as it approaches a more southern point of the WA swell window Wed, with gales to severe gales expected.
Easing swells are expected on Tuesday with generally light variable winds and sea breezes expected to maintain favourable conditions.
No real winds of swell generating significance in the Coral Sea this week. We may see just enough energy in the Coral Sea to generate a tiny wave late this week into the weekend.
I like the look of this weekend. Next week looks slower so make the most of the short term period.
We’ll be relying on some small NE windswell episodes and great circle paths under the continent to deliver some flukey S groundswell short and medium term.
Very quiet across the entire spectrum of the East coast swell window at present. Weak high pressure near New Zealand is being shunted away by another weak high cell moving into the Tasman overnight into tomorrow. Troughiness continues with a slow moving trough line semi-stalled across the MNC this week.
