Juicy looking start to Summer as low pressure trough forms in Coral Sea this week

freeride76

We’ve got an interesting looking pattern as we transition into Summer, with both active frontal systems transiting below the continent and a precursor monsoonal trough across the top end of Australia. A front pushing into the Tasman Sea and a deeper parent low bring S swell pulses this week while a trough of low pressure is expected to hive off the precursor monsoon trough mid week and sit in the Coral Sea later this week, bringing plenty of  E swell for the Eastern Seaboard- especially favouring the sub-tropics for size and duration.

Small S swell pulses tend to small E/NE swells as the tropics show signs of life
