Fun week of waves ahead, before a winter onslaught
Fun week of waves ahead, before a winter onslaught
Generally light variable winds all week should keep conditions clean across all coasts.

Solid surf from the NE then holds through next weekend as a large fetch of E/NE to NE winds extends through the Tasman Sea.
GFS has the more bullish outlook, with a trough or potential surface low forming off the Fraser Coast and tracking south through Fri13th- energising a long E to NE fetch through the Central Tasman to Coral Sea. In effect, it’s a slightly less energised version of the June 2016 Black Nor-Easter set-up.
A generally poor weekend with fun surf Monday and a better swell for Wednesday.
That high will set up a ridge through the week and essentially be the “anvil” for any trough or low pressure development in the Tasman or Coral Sea. A coastal trough off SEQLD/Fraser Coast and interior upper trough combine through the start of next week to increase SE/E winds, initially in the Coral Sea.
Tricky winds and swells this period but there are windows for a cleaner wave in between onshore periods.
Make the most of the waves on the Mid Coast today before the swell fades into the weekend. The South Coast will be fun.
A funky weekend of wind and surf as a low stalls across Tasmania. Settling surf and winds with better options for the beaches next week.
We’ve got more of the same for the next few days. Next week though...
We’ve got more of the same for the next few days, if anything with a slight improvement on the surface as a frontal passage brings westerly winds to the coast.
