No great change to the short term outlook- a strong polar low flared up as it passes under WA and today with gales to severe gales well aimed at SW and southern WA.
The outlook for Thursday has improved a little. And the weekend is looking great, with quality waves both days.
Current weak winds in the Coral Sea are leading to tiny/flat surf and this is expected to continue over the weekend.
A powerful low below the continent this weekend promises a flukey south groundswell while we should see a notch more short period E/NE swell next week from a slow moving trough/low in the Tasman.
S groundswell is still on the radar as a slow moving polar low tied to Fridays front skirts the southern edge of the swell window, over the weekend.

A polar low flares up as it approaches a more southern point of the WA swell window Wed, with gales to severe gales expected.
Easing swells are expected on Tuesday with generally light variable winds and sea breezes expected to maintain favourable conditions.
No real winds of swell generating significance in the Coral Sea this week. We may see just enough energy in the Coral Sea to generate a tiny wave late this week into the weekend.
