In the eastern swell window a massive high east of New Zealand and tropical depression in Tongan longitudes is reaching peak intensity and expected to send some meaningful E’ly groundswell towards the eastern seaboard, making landfall over the weekend and next week.
More frontal activity through the lower Tasman keeps the southern swell window active medium term while the Tasman Sea now looks like showing enhanced storminess with major models in broad agreement over a large, complex surface low developing and good odds for a prolonged M/L swell event.
The wind outlook for tomorrow is much better for the Surf Coast, with a great run of surf due from then through Monday next week.
Lots of activity for the coming fortnight.
Surf rebuilds next week from a combination of Tradewinds as a new high pressure ridge builds over the weekend and long range E swell from a South Pacific low.
Despite the travel distance to Tasmania, we should see some quality long range E/NE swell from this source, with some size from the south this week as the front and low traverse the Tasman.
A retreating trade fetch gets supercharged by a developing trough and low in the South Pacific, reaching maximum intensity between Tongan and Tahitian longitudes. Despite the travel distance, we should see some quality long range E swell from this source, with some size from the south this week as the front and low traverse the Tasman.
Following an onshore blow Wednesday, Thursday and into the weekend look great.
Two pulses of groundswell this week with a few windows as high pressure moves in.
The coming days will become large and stormy across the Mid Coast, improving later week and great on the weekend!
