Central QLD Forecaster Notes by Steve Shearer (updated on Mon 27th Nov)

This week and next week (Nov27-Dec 8)

Central QLD: Glassed out and tiny conditions 

Nothing to ride, good for trips to the reef.

Good for fishing

We’ve got a large high well south of the Bight, with inland troughs linked to a small low East of Tasmania, which is moving away quite rapidly to the East. A complex trough of low pressure moving through the interior is expected to bud off a small surface low this week, somewhere off Southern NSW or the Gippsland coast. Most of the infeed into the system and resultant flow off the southern flank of the low is now focussed on Southern NSW and Tasmania (compared to Mondays notes)

Meanwhile the Coral Sea remains filled with weak winds, mostly glassed out over the short term with a N’ly flow developing mid week. We’re looking at continuing tiny/flat conditions this week with just minor NE windswell unlikely to be rideable.

Weak winds in Coral Sea= tiny surf

No change to that over the weekend or even into the first week of Summer.

Tiny surf better for trips out to the reef and fishing.
