High pressure moves off the South Coast into the Tasman over the weekend with a low pressure system off the SEQLD coast directing a broad fetch of strong wind to near gale S/SE-SE winds through the Northern Tasman. This will produce large SE’ly swells for the sub-tropics with only Points rideable for most of the region.

Turbulent period ahead with windy S swells but easing off relatively quickly with swells from the E-E/NE developing
