That front then forms a low, which becomes slow moving as it tracks NE towards the North Island. Swell is incoming from the front and the low, generating swell from the southern quadrant.

Winds will improve through tomorrow (for the beaches) along with a new swell, easing Sunday with early light morning winds. Next week looks fun on the beaches up until Wednesday.

A broad, angular area of low pressure in the Northern Coral Sea, extending southwards is maintaining good windspeeds in the tradewind fetch at the moment and that is leading to surf punching slightly above it’s weight. 

Nothing too major this period and with dicey winds for the most part. A slower period than we've had the past few weeks.
