Opportunities to surf across both regions this period and even weekend with multiple swells, large next week and varying winds.
Primary tabs
Fun options for a surf to end off the week on the South Coast ahead of a good W/SW swell on the weekend, oversized out of the SW next week.
A good easing swell and favourable winds tomorrow, clean for the rest of the week but smaller. Larger and more active period from the weekend and more so next week.
Plenty of swell but average winds for the weekend, improving quickly through early next week with a new S/SW groundswell.
Stacks of surf ahead, but with initially dicey conditions for both coasts. More in the Forecaster Notes.
The Cape du Couedic wave buoy recorded some impressive wave heights today, up in the size range we see perhaps a couple of times per year (Hsig 7.5m, Hmax 13m). More in the Forecaster Notes.
With the low pressure system sitting west of Tasmania, we’ll also see a very large increase in stormy surf on Monday. More in the Forecaster Notes.
A series of vigorous weather systems approaching the state this weekend are not expected to impact the coast until Monday. More in the Forecaster Notes.
We’re under the influence of a synoptic blocking pattern in the form of a stationary belt of high pressure across the Southern Ocean, stretching from underneath Western Australia through South Australia to a position below Tasmania.
The weekend’s not looking at delivering anything amazing in the surf department.
