A fetch well to the SE of Fiji this week will supply a small, background signal of E swell from Wed for those spots with open access to the E.

There’s just enough strength in the tradewind flow through the central Coral Sea to see some small surf develop across the CQ coast. That should hold surf into Sat before easing.

High pressure systems are looking weak and mobile as befits the changing seasons, tracking NE into the Tasman and bringing a N’ly flow across sub-tropical to temperate regions but holding enough strength in the Coral Sea to generate some small rideable waves from mid-week.

Our summer-style swell producing pattern has broken down and we’re seeing surf ease into the weekend, becoming tiny into next week as high pressure moves towards Tasmania.

A summer style pattern is seeing tropical moisture dragged down the East coast by a trough and deep E/NE-NE flow from a large high in the Tasman, generating large swells for Central QLD.

We have a strong (1033hPa) high in the Tasman, with a deep E’ly flow through the Coral Sea feeding into a coastal trough along the QLD coast. That trough is drawing down plenty of tropical moisture in the deep onshore flow, and generating sizey, stormy E’ly swells for the sub-tropics.

No change expected to the broad pattern next week with strong high pressure moving into the Tasman and a broad, deep E’ly fetch developing through the Coral Sea, with an embedded trough.
