There'll be plenty of fun sized W/SW swell with favourable winds this period ahead of a large SW groundswell early next week.
Northerly winds and easing swells are on offer this week with weak pressure gradients in the Coral Sea.
Tiny W/SW swells for the coming week, offshore each morning.
Ex TC Gabrielle is still the main game as far as swell production goes. The former cyclone is now a large sub-tropical storm (SS) slow moving near the top of the North Island. Current ASCAT (satellite windspeed) passes show a broad but short fetch of gales to severe gales extending off the west coast of the North Island, slightly off axis for the East Coast but maintaining a strong swell regime in the short term.
A strong SW groundswell will be spoilt by onshore winds tomorrow, improving slowly from Wednesday.

Improving conditions with fun sized swells for the coming week, a tease mostly on the Mid Coast.
Inconsistent but fun sized W/SW swells with favourable winds for the beaches come Wednesday through Friday.
Now that the low axis of TC Gabrielle has moved south of the CQ coast we’ll see diminishing swells.
