The models didn’t really pick up today's SE swell very well, but I think the guidance is pretty good for the next few days. And that is: nothing of any great interest.
Lots of swell to come with great winds for the South Coast and a window of good conditions and swell on the Mid Coast.
A trough sliding up the coast this afternoon is a bit of an annoyance. It’s both disrupting the northerly fetch generating our local swell (which will lead to a drop in size through Thursday and Friday), and is also steering the Southern Ocean storm track away from our south swell window. It’s also not bringing any local southerly swell either.
A mix of W/SW swells through the end of the week with improving conditions to the east, followed by larger more powerful swells on the weekend, best in protected spots.
Plenty of S'ly swell pulses, largest later week and next week with persistent SE-S/SE winds.
Plenty of swell this period with funky winds the next couple of days and some larger swell pulses in the mix.
This swell will reach a peak overnight and will trend down into Tuesday, and we’ll see the most size through Northern NSW.
No real decent surf days besides a possible small windswell Wednesday.
Good fun waves tomorrow, tiny until later week and solid through the weekend.
Unfortunately, the synoptic change that brought this initial swell forward has had a negative impact on the short term outlook, as it’s steered some of the trailing systems away from our swell window.
