The weekend may in fact pick up an unusual spread of S/SE swell, from westerly gales pushing off the coast. Thereafter we'll see plenty of strong south swell into next week. More in the Forecast Notes.

Friday’s freshening northerly breeze will be short lived, but quite strong and early Saturday should see a brief peak of local windswell at exposed beaches. More in the Forecaster Notes.
There’s no major change to the weekend forecast. More in the Forecaster Notes.
There’ll be waves this weekend though local winds may spoil the party across some regions. More in the Forecaster Notes.
I’ve highlighted this small east swell up front because it’ll favour SE Qld beaches, and also because Northern NSW has a much more interesting southerly swell on the way too, which won’t get north of the border. More in the Forecaster Notes.
There won’t be any shortage of surf this weekend, though northern regions will see lingering effects from today’s SE airstream into Saturday morning. More in the Forecaster Notes.
A gusty southerly change pushing up the Northern NSW coast overnight should be somewhere around Ballina at dawn, crossing the border mid-late morning and then reaching the Sunny Coast early-mid afternoon. Ahead of its arrival, winds should be light and variable. More in the Forecaster Notes.
We’ve got some fun waves in store throughout the forecast period. More in the Forecaster Notes.
A trough will move up the coast over the weekend, creating tricky winds at some point for most coasts, but also a few small windows of opportunity. More in the Forecaster Notes.
Let’s cut to the chance - the next few days look really average indeed, mainly due to the presence of a fresh, sustained N’ly breeze. More in the Forecaster Notes.
