What I like most about this swell event is that the system responsible for it weakens only slowly through its passage under the continent, which means the backside of the peak - on Friday - will ease only slowly in size.

I’m really impressed with the way the models are tracking this system through the Southern Ocean - it reaches maturity in an ideal part of the swell window (south of WA) but also has most of its initial stages at a reasonably low latitude (50S or lower) which means it’ll spend a lot of time within our swell window.

Easing SW swell over the coming days with S/SE winds tomorrow and a N/NE'ly on Friday. Slow and small Saturday with a freshening N'ly and then similar Sunday ahead of an onshore change. Better swell mid-next week.

Mid-period W/SW swell for dawn tomorrow, with a stronger SW swell building through the morning. Not the best winds, likely W/NW-W around Torquay. Easing and cleaner Wednesday morning, then onshore Thursday. Small clean leftovers across magnets Friday morning. Average weekend.
