Nothing to recommend over the weekend but next week will become a touch better with a couple of options opening up, though as a whole it's not great.

By the time winds swing offshore there'll be no swell of size or push left over the coming period. Better potential later next week, but winds could be an issue.

Winds and swell from the east-southeast this week, becoming cleaner at one stage as the swell bottoms out. Likely better potential mid-late next week.

With poor winds expected all weekend, there’s no need to waffle on about the synoptics (though, I’ll give it a crack, of course). More in the Forecaster Notes.

Lots of groundswell for the weekend, but poor winds to boot. More in the Forecaster Notes.

This week’s surf outlook can best be described in firefighting parlance, as ‘watch and act’. More in the Forecaster Notes.

So, the weekend’s winds are still a little flukey but we’ve now got a more easily identifiable window of opportunity. And then a whole series of back-to-back long period swells next week. More in the Forecaster Notes.

The weekend outlook is still unclear, mainly regarding local winds. This is thanks to a developing surface trough across Southern Australia over the coming days that will slowly track eastwards. More in the Forecaster Notes.

I gotta say, of all the times to pick up the reins of the Vicco forecasting bench, this morning is the least desirable of the lot. More in the Forecaster Notes.

An OK weekend for a surf with smallish, fun waves, better next week but inconsistent with swells out of the west. Winds will be interesting but favourable.
