The strong high is the possible source of surf for CQ and at this stage we’ll see an increase in Coral Sea tradewinds through Tues/Wed, focussed in the Eastern area near New Caledonia. No great size is expected but we should see some tiny just rideable surf through Tues-Thurs on low tides.
Primary tabs
Tradewinds are expected to develop in the Coral Sea through next week, leading to rideable surf from mid week.
The next high pressure ridge will build in on Tues next week and if current modelling holds we should see weak but persistent tradewinds develop in the Coral Sea mid next week with small but rideable surf developing Wed or Thurs.
The current SE surge from the high has produced more surfable conditions across CQ, which will ease into the middle of this week.
The SE surge from the current high will see small waves over the weekend.
We’ve got high pressure moving across the Tasman with a much stronger dual-centred high tracking into the Bight. The current high is generating small, just surfable swells for CQ.
Surf then goes tiny into the weekend with a possible rebuild early next week on a SE surge as a strong new high moves into the Tasman.
We’ll see tradewinds rebuild early next week as a reinforcing high moves into the Tasman with surf building a notch from next Tues or Wed and staying really fun right through until Fri next week.
Surf should ease early next week but another blocking dual-centred high in the Tasman next week looks to re-strengthen tradewinds in the Coral Sea with wave heights increasing later next week.
We’ll see a SE surge with the high pressure ridge and a small increase in swell from Wed across the CQ coast.
