If you pay close attention, you’ll notice an area with no wind barbs (white patches) upstream from the SE fetch. This is quite unusual - scatterometry is not affected by cloud cover - and suggests that there may be a broad area of drifting sea ice sitting well north from the Antarctica ice shelf

Southeast Queensland and Northern New South Wales Surf Forecast by Ben Matson (issued Friday 9th May)

Best Days: Sat: decent S/SE swell in Northern NSW with good winds across the Mid North Coast (probably OK early morning in the Far North, and also in SE Qld - but it'll be much smaller north of the border). Sun: steadily easing swell with good winds in most regions.
