High pressure in the Tasman is maintaining a ridge along the QLD coast with fun sized surf across the CQ region under mod/fresh SE winds.
It’s quite a bland synoptic outlook with a large area of high pressure moving into the Tasman and becoming slow moving as it weakens. That is forcing fronts well to the south and away from the southern swell window. Not much change for the Easter outlook. Just tiny surf is expected both days and extending into Easter Mon.
Take your pick this period working the tides and winds for the best of the coming swell.
Conditions should be cleaner tomorrow morning thanks to an improved wind outlook with a peak in large W/SW swells.
Only minor action from the E is expected from a northwards positioned SE flow in the Coral Sea. Adding to that source south of the border we’ll see some small S’ly pulses over the Easter long weekend.
The weekend will be fun for surf across the South Coast with plenty of options for all to get a few surfs in.
From Wed onwards we’ll see a much more dynamic pattern in the Tasman. The inland low will exit near the Gippsland coast and conjoin with a front as a major new high pushes in behind from the Bight.
There are a couple of small-moderate sized swell pulses due this weekend with worakble winds, while next week looks to be mostly a write-off.
Make the most of the coming large surf.
The swell regime for the next few days throughout SE Qld will remain small out of the east with just enough size for small runners on the semi-exposed points.
