Looking to the end of the week and a trough of low pressure and a weak trade flow combine inside New Caledonia Wed/Thurs.
More fronts maintain a synoptic offshore flow (or light winds) for the week and we’ve got plenty of S swell to last the week, albeit at reduced sizes compared to the weekend.

There's plenty more swell to come this period with a strong SE groundswell into the end of the week.
Today's swell and winds will ease tomorrow as a low clears to the east, followed by building and strengthening frontal systems and XL surf this weekend.
We're entering a slower period with no real significant stormy activity firing up in the Southern Ocean.
Easing surf with no considerable swells for the coming week most of next week.
Sunday is a different story as storm force winds sweep past the state, bringing a S swell much larger than anything seen so far.
Current ASCAT (satellite wind speed) passes show gales to severe gales extending down to 55S with a tighter core of storm force winds just emerging from behind Tasmania as it tracks NE into the Tasman Sea. The synoptic flow from the fronts and Southern Gyre remains W to W/SW and that will continue all weekend with plenty of wind chill to boot.
