Now, these minor S’ly swells are all well and good, but how about the possible N’ly swell from TC Owen?

As was discussed in Wednesday’s notes, a developing tropical low near the Solomon Islands today is expected to drift SW towards the south-eastern tip of PNG over the weekend, and strengthen into Tropical Cyclone status. More in the Forecaster Notes.

The synoptics are pretty dynamic. We’ve got a rapidly deepening low off the Central NSW Coast that’s expected to deliver 40-50kt winds today, and in the process generate a hefty short range south swell for Northern NSW.

It will be worth scheduling in a late session at any one of the beaches, as there’ll be a peaky mix of building N’ly windswell and easing S/SE swell. More in the Forecaster Notes.

Today’s fresh offshore winds are associated with a deepening Tasman Low that’s expected to meander slowly through the western Tasman Sea for the next few days, and will deliver an extended period of short range south swell to our coast, mainly favouring Northern NSW.

The N’ly windswell doesn’t interest me quite as much as the incoming SE swell. More in the Forecaster Notes.

A strong front pushing through the lower SE corner of the Tasman Sea yesterday has reinvigorated the remnants of a small low responsible for an underlying SE swell over the weekend, and this is strengthening a S’ly tending S/SE fetch off the west coast of New Zealand's South Island.

We’ve got a fun weekend of east swell ahead, and there's plenty of exciting synoptics ahead for the rest of the period too.

We’ve got building swells on the cards for the rest of the week, thanks to a slow moving Tasman high. The main issue we have this week are local winds.
