More action in the tropics next week. Later this week another tropical low is expected to form in the South Pacific- possibly between Fiji and Vanuatu.

A tropical hybrid low is now tracking SE down the Coral Sea, roughly parallel to the QLD coast. This will bring plenty of solid swell to the f/cast region over the short term

Surf prospects from this low are now confirmed as excellent with major weather models expecting the system to track parallel to the East Coast, spraying the region with swell as it does so and, possibly reforming as a significant extra-tropical storm in the lower Tasman Sea next week.

In the tropics the Monsoon trough is now active, with good odds of cylogenesis occurring before the New Year and plenty of surf ahead.

Models have invested in the start of the Northern Australian Monsoon (NAM) as the year ends, suggesting a tropical low tracking across the Northern Territory into the Gulf of Carpenteria and then across Cape York Peninsula into the Coral Sea towards the end of next week.

Very weak pressure gradients everywhere as we continue to meander through this troughy, doldrums pattern. Plenty of action ahead next week.

Lots of wind changes and flukey swells ahead this week as a Spring looking pattern unfolds in the week leading up to Xmas.

However, we have some new swell due south of the border on Friday. In fact the Lower Mid North Coast may see this late Thursday.

We have some small new swell on the way for the end of the week. Though, one coast will pick it up and the other will miss out.
