That will be the dominant feature of our synoptic set-up for some time, which sees high pressure in the Tasman and a firm ridge up the sub-tropical coast and broad fetch of E-E/SE winds in the Coral Sea.

We’ll see a strong high edge in from the Bight early this week and take up residence in the Tasman Sea, with a broad and persistent Tradewinds fetch developing in the Coral Sea. We should see just rideable surf through Tues and Wed ramp up on Thurs as windspeeds increase in the Coral Sea.

Better signs ahead as a stronger high approaches Tasmania later next week, building a stronger ridge and a better tradewind coverage in the Coral Sea from Wed.

We’ll see a new high move into the Tasman over the weekend with a SE surge developing up the Tasman and into the Coral Sea. That should see some rideable surf develop under SE-E winds through Sun into Mon and extending into Tues before easing.

Weak high pressure remains in the Tasman with weak breezes in the Coral Sea already contracting eastwards. That may see some gusty rideable surf tomorrow but quickly dissipating back to tiny/flat through the rest of the week.

Weak high pressure and slack winds in the Coral Sea are leading to a prolonged spell of tiny/flat surf which will extend over the weekend and into next week.

No real winds of swell generating significance in the Coral Sea this week. We may see just enough energy in the Coral Sea to generate a tiny wave late this week into the weekend.

We should see a weak, E’ly trade flow develop across the Eastern extremity of the Coral Sea and into the South Pacific slot later next week which would see some background E swell start to fill in later next week.
