We'll see continuing swells out of the west with the South Coast being cleanest, though the Mid should offer a few windows.

We’ve got a mobile pattern this week with high pressure over NSW slipping out into the Tasman, before a trough and front push into the Tasman in advance of another high cell moving over Southern NSW into the Tasman. We’ll see quite a few wind changes this week as a result and modest upgrade in S swell energy as the trough and front develop a handy fetch in the Tasman
We'll see the swell continue in the mostly moderate sized range with favourable winds for the Surf Coast and a window or two to the east.
The blocking high has established quite a healthy trade flow through the Northern down to Central Coral Sea and extending out to New Caledonia. Current ASCAT (satellite windspeed) passes show a broad coverage of 20kt+ winds through this zone with CQ observations confirming 2-3ft surf.
More NE windswell is on the menu likely Thurs as a front approaches and N’ly winds freshen off Southern NSW.

We've got a couple of windows of cleaner conditions for the South West this period.
We've got a shift in the wind pattern as a front clips us, bringing cleaner conditions and fun swells for the Mid Coast on the weekend.
Blocking high pressure in the Central Tasman has a ridge up the QLD Coast, with weak pressure gradients across NSW leading to pre-frontal N-NW winds. Not much surf on offer either day.
