Based on model guidance, we’re yet to see the peak swell energy from TC Mona.
We have an increase in store out of the east courtesy of TC Mona, which has been lingering near Fiji all week. More in the forecaster Notes.
Feels like we’re about to see Groundhog Day for a little while longer yet, with this same pattern of easterly swells and light variable tending light to moderate onshore winds across SE Qld and Far Northern NSW.

We have plenty of new E’ly swell on the way. More in the Forecaster Notes.
