S’ly groundswell is currently being generated by a slow moving polar low on the far edge of the swell window well to the SW of Tasmania. Most of this swell is better aimed at the southern states and South Pacific targets but we will see some refraction into the East Coast of Tasmania

A powerful low below the continent this weekend promises a flukey south groundswell while we should see a notch more short period E/NE swell next week from a slow moving trough/low in the Tasman.

We’ll be relying on some small NE windswell episodes and great circle paths under the continent to deliver some flukey S groundswell short and medium term.

The freshening N-NE flow along the NSW temperate coast should generate some NE windswell through Wed PM, peaking Thurs

Some modest frontal activity pushes through late in the week with a developing N’ly flow on Sun set to provide some NE windswell.

Under current modelling it looks one of the more significant NE fetches for the Spring, extending north into sub-tropical latitudes right down to Tasmania.

A complex but disjointed low has formed in the Tasman with diffuse centres off the North Coast and Tasmania/Gippsland coast. We’ll see S swells generated by the proximate fetches from this system easing into the weekend.

That will see a S wind change and some, windy but sizey S swells through the end of the week into the weekend. Lingering troughiness in the Tasman may see yet another low form next week- which would be the 4th successive surface low to form in October.

We'll see offshore winds develop Wed offering good conditions as a long range E swell makes landfall.

A low is expected to move E of Tasmania o/night and form a broad low pressure trough in the Tasman driving SW’ly then S’ly winds up the Tasmanian east coast before moving NE as a surface low over the weekend. That will be the second surface low in succession to form in the Tasman and we may yet see a third develop later next week.
