Dicey week ahead of the first proper Southern Ocean frontal progression of the autumn season
A deepening low to our east will bring persistent onshore winds, spoiling some good groundswell.
The South West will offer small waves over the weekend with more action from mid-late next week.
Mon Update- no change to outlook, tiny/flat this week as Tasman low dominates the space.
By Sun we’ll see a low forming off the South Coast with a strong SE infeed along the southern flank of the low. That will see strong S/SE winds through Sun and building swells from the same direction.
We've got plenty of swell due this period but mostly from the south and with associated south winds. The Mid Coast will be clean but tiny.
Make the most of today ahead of a poor, windy weekend, continuing early next week with some stronger SW groundswell in the mix.
We’re now looking at a very significant S swell early next week as a deep low sits off the South or Gippsland Coast with severe gales to storm force winds aimed into the proximate southern swell window.

Concurrently, another Ross Sea ice shelf fetch will be peaking or just post-peak as a massive deep low forms NE of the Ross Sea on the weekend and develops storm force winds.
We’ll see a couple of fun days of surf from the initial tradewind fetch feeding into the trough for CQ.
