The low east of Tasmania supplies plenty of strong S-SE swell through the short term with an easing trend back to small background swells this week.

A trough moving north from a position east of Tasmania brings a renewal of the S’ly pattern today into Fri before the summer pattern slowly resets over the weekend. Any large or moderate swell generating features have disappeared from the charts, alas but there’ll be some fun swell sources for NETas.

A complex inland trough/low is emerging from the Gippsland coast into the Tasman Sea with a fetch of SE-E/SE winds aimed at Tasmania and offering some plenty of E-E/NE swell, easing tomorrow.

The infeed into the low is focussed on Far Southern NSW and Tasmania before the low moves into the Tasman and drifts SE. We’ll see plenty of E quadrant swell off the infeed. Frontal systems following this troughy pattern should supply S swell of moderate size late in the week and over NYE and New Years Day.

A good E/SE swell will ease on the weekend with favourable winds. Early next week looks average, improving again later week.

Poor surf tomorrow, improving with size and energy Friday with workable options, clean and easing into the weekend. Stormy swell on the cards for next week.

We've got a dynamic period ahead with deepening troughs/lows in the Tasman Sea but swell wise nothing significant is due.
