Central QLD Forecaster Notes by Steve Shearer (updated on Mon July 22nd)

This week and next week (July22-Aug 2)

Central QLD: Small, rideable surf from mid week

Nothing over the weekend and into today.

As outlined on Friday the Tasman Sea takes a breather this week with a large (1028hPa) high slowly moving over NSW and QLD to enter the Tasman through tomorrow. The high will set-up a tradewind fetch this week. This pattern should be accompanied by some small trade swell generated by a modest tradewind fetch developing S and SW of New Caledonia this week (see below).

Expect rideable surf developing through Wed and holding into Friday before easing into the weekend.

Check back Wed for the latest.
