We've got lots of swell for the South Coast over the coming days as winds slowly improve, windy and larger next week.
Spectacular charts more characteristic of late Summer/Autumn with a Cat 5 TC in the South Pacific bearing down on Vanuatu, and a powerful frontal intrusion poised to enter the Tasman Sea backed by a monster high in the Bight.
The coming period remains tricky with onshore winds at the peak of the swells, smallest and fading when clean.
Very slow outlook with S/SE-S swell across Indonesia.
The expected strong SE surge is captured by a trough and deepens into a surface low on Fri with small SE swell expected for the weekend in the 2ft range under fresh/strong S/SE winds.
The powerful surface low in the Northern Tasman this weekend is expected to send some quality E/NE swell down to NETas.
The coming period is very active with lots of options to work around.
Late in the week, a combination of inland upper trough and a long angled trough extending from TC Lola remnants is expected to form a powerful surface low off the sub-tropical NSW Coast (likely between Lord Howe and Norfolk Is). As modelled, gales will produce a large E’ly quadrant swell event, with maximum size in Northern NSW, grading smaller into temperate NSW. A secondary October surprise that looks to be a major swell producer.
The coming period remains slow but there are a couple of clean mornings with fun, small surf.
