Throughout SE Qld, I’ve changed my opinion on this swell and I think there’s a decent chance that that it’ll perform pretty well for the outer points, because most of the energy will have been sourced from the eastern Tasman Sea. More in the Forecaster Notes.

Confidence is not high for this event. All we can really do is highlight the expect trend, peg a size and a region for the upper limits, and then see what happens. More in the Forecaster Notes.
