Generally clean conditions on the weekend but no decent size. Similar early next week ahead of larger windier surf developing late next week.
There’s no need to be overly specific in the weekend outlook: Saturday will be similar to today. But there are some great beachbreaks ahead for the next week. More in the Forecaster Notes.
A small subdued period of waves ahead of large and windy developments late next week and into the weekend.
We have a really nice S/SE groundswell on the way, generated by an intense polar low developing off the ice shelf SW of New Zealand over the weekend. More in the Forecaster Notes.
The automated forecasts are calling for a significant jump in wave heights later Thursday and through Friday and Saturday. However, the source swell models are (in my view) incorrectly combining two swell trains. More in the Forecaster Notes.
Inconsistent amounts of E/NE trade-swell for the rest of the week, easing from the weekend.
Easing surf with nothing of note until late in the period.
Predominantly onshore winds are expected for the rest of the week, which will keep surface conditions a little below par. This is a shame as we’ve still got plenty of swell on the way. More in the Forecaster Notes.
Plenty of swell inbound but winds will be the issue across the South West, more favourable to the north at periods.
Improving conditions down South as the swell eases, small but fun on the weekend. Slow period until later next week.
