Not a great deal to get excited about in the short term, but we will certainly see an improvement over the last few days.

You’ll have to aim for an early session at the beaches while winds are lightest (keep your expectations low).
As such, we’re not looking at much swell energy north of (about) Coffs Harbour from this source, and what energy does arrive will probably peak overnight Thursday.
Plenty of swell for the rest of the week - you’ll just have to work around the winds.
Looking very good overall, especially after a couple of months of annoying northerlies!
We’ve got a developing low off the southern NSW coast on Thursday that’ll dictate our surf, wind and weather for the following couple of days.
This developing trough looks like it will finally break the recent pattern of persistent northerly winds across the East Coast.
No change to the weekend forecast - northerlies will generally ruin the surf at most locations.
It’s a broken record for the short term outlook - small surf and northerly winds. Is there any point in embellishing it further?
If model guidance is to be believed (and it’s hard to disagree right now) the next southerly change may not push through until next Wednesday afternoon on the Mid North Coast (more than nine days away), and sometime next Thursday morning in SE Qld.
