Troughs will bring dicey winds and average conditions for most of the week with only a couple of windows.

With weak winds in the Coral Sea we’ll see tiny surf this week. Not dead flat, there’ll be just enough swell energy from a constant regime of weak E’ly winds to hold a very small weak swell, possibly just surfable on low tides.
Into the weekend and we should see an increase in NE-E/NE swell on Sat from winds feeding into a trough near the Gippsland coast.
The troughy pattern remains installed into the medium term so we’re still keeping an eye out for short range features which could supply local swell sources, although these look small and weak.
The period remains average with small swells with strong winds which will limit options.

The coming fortnight looks average with persistent onshore winds from the southern quadrant. A couple of small windows might present themselves.
The current strong swell will ease today, with smaller, weaker swells with deteriorating winds and conditions due this period. There should be a couple of windows to the east.
Into next week and a large blocking high moving into the Tasman over the weekend is now weaker than expected and the resultant trade flow through the Coral Sea is also much weaker.
Therefore we’re now only looking at tiny surf for next week
Sun is a different story as strong, long period S swells from a storm force system in the Southern Ocean make landfall.
