Neither of these fetches are well aimed for CQ but small amounts of ESE swell should be in the water by Tues.

Next week is looking much more dynamic with possibilities for some quality E/SE swell on the radar for breaks with exposure through the Capricorn Channel.

A trough of low pressure off the Mid North Coast is located too far south and in the swell shadow of Fraser Island to generate any meaningful swell for the CQ region. As this system moves away we may see some tiny SE swells creep around the corner into the Capricorn channel but any size will be marginal at best.

Early next week, possibly Tues, we’ll see a stronger high in the Tasman with a broad SE surge pushing up the QLD Coast.

No great change to the f/cast. A trough over CQ and very weak ridge are not supplying sufficient wind energy to generate any rideable surf.

Tradewinds are now contracting Eastwards and the Coral Sea is going to quieten right down this week with only weak pressure gradients and light winds.

High pressure is now weakening with the angled monsoon trough stretched along the edge of the Coral Sea still supplying sufficient pressure gradients to maintain a tradewind flow which is generating small, fun surf.
