Central QLD Forecaster Notes by Steve Shearer (updated on Wed 28th June)

This weekend and next week (June28-Jul 7)

Central QLD: We’ll see some surf develop Sun/Mon

Tiny/flat surf has continued since the last notes.

From early week we’re still looking at uncertainty depending on the evolution of the inland troughs tracking across Aus as a large high shifts across from the Bight. We still may see a trough/low develop off the Central QLD Coast and drift South, bringing building E/NE swells possibly Mon-Tues before the systems gets captured in the W’ly flow.

Great potential for building E'ly swells Mon

Or we may just see the normal development of SE-E/SE winds in the Coral Sea from the strong high pressure centre in the Tasman,  generating SE-E/SE swell from Mon into Wed.

Either way, we’ll see some ridable surf develop in CQ possibly as early as late Sun, more likely Mon.

Check back Fri and those scenarios will come into clearer focus as we get closer to the event.

Seeya then.
