We’re midway through a pretty sleepy week, swell-wise. A high pressure cell is drifting across the interior of the continent with a trough/front connected to a high riding low pushing East of Tasmania through today. That's driving a mod/fresh synoptic W’ly flow across most of NSW and extending up into the sub-tropics.

Strong onshore winds and building surf will be seen over the coming days, improving considerably as it eases on the weekend.

Flag the end of the week and focus on the weekend, but expect tricky, windy conditions with a new episode of westerly swell.

The coming week is slow with nothing of note. Later next week holds better potential.
