There’s not much let-up in the action next week. Storms have been spaced around 24-36hrs apart with each new fetch working on an already active sea state. This is producing overlapping swell trains, with consistent big surf expected across exposed North and West facing shores next week.

The weekend will mostly consist of windswell until Sunday afternoon, with a better swell for Monday.

By Tues the wave climate will come more under the direct influence of the tropics, with a broad Tradewinds band being accelerated by a tropical low drifting South from area between Fiji and Vanuatu.
