We may see a brief spike in swell this weekend as a low forms off the North QLD coast, seeing a brief flaring of SE-ESE winds along the Capricorn Coast and extending into the Coral Sea.
After a very slow moving synoptic pattern in the Xmas-New Years week we are finally seeing some movement as the tropical low which hived off the monsoon trough now journeys into the Southern Tasman, leading to building E/NE swells across NE Tas, where it will merge with a surface trough currently working it’s way north along the NSW Coast.
After a very slow moving synoptic pattern in the Xmas-New Years week we are finally seeing some movement as the tropical low which hived off the monsoon trough now journeys into the Southern Tasman, leading to easing swells across the region, where it will merge with a surface trough currently working it’s way north along the NSW Coast.
Small swells with dicey winds this period, poor into next week.
Nothing major surf wise and winds will be tricky at the peak of the incoming swells.
After a very slow moving synoptic pattern in the Xmas-New Years week we are finally seeing some movement as the tropical low which hived off the monsoon trough now journeys into the Southern Tasman generating strong E swells, where it will merge with a surface trough currently working it’s way north along the NSW Coast.
Options over the coming days will become smaller as the swell eases. Winds will improve slowly down South but with fading surf. Early-mid next week holds more promise for the Mid Coast.
Expect poor conditions and winds at the peak of swells, cleanest when the size and energy is gone.
Next possible surf is this weekend a a tropical low is expected to drift down from the Far North QLD coast. We should see an infeed of E/NE winds later Fri, leading to a fast rising spike in E swell Sat.
