The south magnets will be the pick over the coming days for a surf with fun pulse of south energy.

One down, one to go.
We've got a very dynamic and exciting week of swell and winds ahead.
Into the new week and it still looks dynamic with several strong N’ly fetches.
Small, combination swells and some light wind periods pad out the rest of the week with a more entrenched N’ly episode next week with solid NE swell expected.
We’ve got a small fetch out of Cook Strait at present from a decaying low pressure system, and small, compact low about to enter the Tasman bringing todays S’ly change and a S swell tomorrow. A stronger front late this week will supply a modest S pulse heading into the weekend.
Into next week and no major swell sources on the radar. High pressure moves NE into the Tasman with as N’ly fetch off the NSW S Coast likely to generate some small NE windswell Mon.
Small fronts and lows bring some minor S swell pulses to the NE corner later this week, before high pressure drifts across the Island and brings calm conditions. A few small swell sources are possible but in general we’re looking at a quiet period.
We’ve got another slow moving pattern on our hands to start the week with a high pressure belt at sub-tropical latitudes directing a W’ly to NW’ly flow across the state and a very zonal (W-E) storm track tracking through the far southern Tasman Sea.
No great change to the weekend f/cast. High pressure in the Tasman and a W’ly biased ridge across Tasmania as fronts and a deep low pass to the south.
