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.

A seemingly endless supply of reasonably strong Southern Ocean lows will move track parallel to the ice shelf all week, supplying pulsey groundswell for our region throughout the medium to longer term period.

I really like the look of this system, its position relative to the coast is in the ‘goldilocks’ zone for the South Coast at least, reaching peak intensity between Margaret River and Adelaide longitudes, beginning to weaken as it approaches Victorian latitudes.

Good winds and a fun S/SW groundswell for the weekend with a large swell for next week with dicey winds for the South Coast.

A mixed weekend of surf, small though fun across both coasts at stages, better next week with a strong SW groundswell and good winds as it eases.

No significant swells over the coming days ahead of a fun new W/SW swell later in the weekend and next week, with a stronger groundswell later week.
