We’ve got a mobile pattern this week with high pressure over NSW slipping out into the Tasman, before a trough and front push into the Tasman in advance of another high cell moving over Southern NSW into the Tasman. We’ll see quite a few wind changes this week as a result and modest upgrade in S swell energy as the trough and front develop a handy fetch in the Tasman

The blocking high has established quite a healthy trade flow through the Northern down to Central Coral Sea and extending out to New Caledonia. Current ASCAT (satellite windspeed) passes show a broad coverage of 20kt+ winds through this zone with CQ observations confirming 2-3ft surf.

We've got a couple of windows of cleaner conditions for the South West this period.
