The coming forecast is tricky with varying swell pulses and winds, best for the South Coast from Tuesday. Windows on the Mid look limited.
All in all the weekend looks to be mostly a write-off, with improving options through next week with varying pulses of swell.
We've got a fun swell with decent winds to end off the week ahead of a windy, stormy and poor weekend of surf.
There's a mixed bag of swells and generally favourable morning winds this period.
A trough of low pressure off the Mid North Coast is located too far south and in the swell shadow of Fraser Island to generate any meaningful swell for the CQ region. As this system moves away we may see some tiny SE swells creep around the corner into the Capricorn channel but any size will be marginal at best.
Easter Sunday should see a steady upwards trend in S swell, as a strong S swell cycle gathers steam, enough to blow out the cobwebs from our quiet start to Autumn.
Make the most of a building swell and favourable winds tomorrow before conditions and the surf goes poor Friday through next Tuesday.
The big ticket item presently is the complex trough of low pressure off the Mid North Coast. Current ASCAT (satellite windspeed) passes show a proximate fetch of strong winds with embedded low end E’ly quarter gales aimed directly at the Mid North Coast.

A mixed period with winds going through the whole compass as well as with a mix of swells. The outlook becomes more active from late next week.
