Central QLD Forecaster Notes by Steve Shearer (updated on Mon Nov 18th)

This week and next week (Nov18-Nov 29)

Central QLD: Extended tradewind swell ahead 

Almost rideable, better days ahead.

Rideable on lower tides

We’ll see a strong high edge in from the Bight early this week and take up residence in the Tasman Sea, with a broad and persistent Tradewinds fetch developing in the Coral Sea. We should see just rideable surf through Tues and Wed ramp up on Thurs as windspeeds increase in the Coral Sea.

Size then holds into the weekend and persists at fun levels into next week as high pressure slowly moves east with reinforcing high-pressure moving into the Tasman.

Check back Wed and we’ll see how it looks.
