Cleaner conditions are due over the coming days with a drop in swell, windier and less favourable later week.
Weak high pressure in the Tasman and a trough is creating a “doldrums” type pattern of slack pressure gradients and small swells this week, with a few wind changes to negotiate. No major swells expected this week. The headline feature is a potential major tropical cyclone drifting into the Coral Sea with a poleward (southwards) track late this week, over the weekend and into next week.
The coming week should see fun levels of W/SW swell with workable winds for both regions.

The coming week isn't ideal but there should be some surfable options for the keen Thursday/Friday.
Fun pulse of Sly swell early next week with favourable winds.
A poor weekend is expected with a large, prolonged swell for early to mid next week.
Further ahead and some weather model runs are starting to look pretty damn juicy with respect to a developing TC in the South Pacific moving into the Coral Sea next week. Still very early days but a full blown cyclone swell is now a definite possibility, possibly as early as late next week and into the weekend.
No great change to the weekend f/cast. Low pressure has moved off the coast and is slow moving, with a broad fetch of strong E’ly winds on the southern flank of the low supplying plenty of E’ly swell to NE Tasmania.
Further ahead and some weather model runs are starting to look pretty damn juicy with respect to a developing TC in the South Pacific moving into the Coral Sea later next week. Still very early days but a full blown cyclone swell is now a definite possibility, possibly as early as next weekend and into the week 9/12
