That NE windswell looks to be persistent under the slow moving pattern with high pressure drifting towards New Zealand. We should see an uptick in size through the second half of next week.
The weekend will be mostly poor but early next week better waves are due on the exposed beaches, possibly continuing into mid-week (check back Monday).
The surf will hardly get above 4ft across Indonesia, with fun surf in the Maldives out of the wind.
Small background swells will keep the South Arm topped up with surf.
The coming period remains slow, with a possible better swell for late next week.
Under current modelling this should be an extended event as the N'ly fetch persists and actually increases later next week.
The deep Tasman low near the North Island has now dissipated and left the building with a small low in the Central/Southern Tasman supplying small S swells and an even smaller trough of low pressure off the Far North Coast directing SE winds onto the coast. This pattern remains slow moving as large high slowly approaches from South of the Bight and multiple inland troughs supply unstable weather.
Following yesterday's strong swell the outlook is much smaller and weaker along with average winds.

The swell will become smaller into the end of the week though with lingering S/SW winds. Next week looks better for a surf to the east.
