Solid S swells this week as low hovers in Tasman, tricky winds at times
We have a powerful swell generating pattern in place with a deep low (993hPa) in the Tasman, supported by a large high (1033hPa) well to the south of the Bight.

The low in the Tasman appears to have a central pressure of 978 hPa, not 993 hPa.
Pretty remarkable looking system really. Be unreal if it was parked a bit further SE in the middle of July and was pumping cold, moist S’ly air over the Snowies and Central Tablelands.
Yep, deepened since yesterday when it was 993.
Parked a little further SW I should say, not SE.
8ft now across the MNC.
Pumping. Kick your boss in the dick, pull the kids out of school and get some.
Unfortunately for yours truely two days of choccy barrels have taken their toll and I woke up this morning with a sore throat. I went out, got a few but had no energy. Very 'weekend at Bernie's' type of surf.
Day 3 of swell bender, signing off. Probably for the short term. Get out there! Watch the water quality.
Hahaha
No sign of that south swell north of the border. Left over inconsistent NE energy this morning.
Definitely felt like Autumn however so that’s a good start.
Weird times here.
S swell came roaring up yesterday lunch-time, then dropped off through the arvo.
Signs of it this morning, now 2-3ft rock runners.
Definitely did not feel like autumn this morning here, humid wet blanket still sitting over us.
Water has gone dirty again.
It was cool both in and out of the water with that Sly blowing this morning.
That dirty water was moving up the coast up a solid walking pace yesterday arvo, was interesting to see it come.
really pushing in here north of coffs 8ft plus sets breaking a long way out.....beaches are going to be rearranged .....probably a good thing
I concur.
Nothing north of Coffs today. Never is.
Absolutely bizarre here, tried to pulse from a weak 2-3ft, there were a few 4ft sets then nothing.
That swell seems to have got lost between Coffs and here.
Yamba only looks mid-sized too.
It's phenomenal how giant it is in SENSW and how small it is here, despite this being a S exposed coastline.
I've never seen that much of a spread before.
Too short a period to make for decent refraction? Not a rhetorical question.
I often find those ones that form off Sydney/south coast miss us (northern rivers) in the early stages, but the back end provides
Here's to hoping
For sure- but I'm still shocked it wasn't 5-6ft here this arvo.
E sets still bigger than S swell most of the arvo.
Just had a squizz at the map and yep, that probably makes the most sense given the angle I.B. A game of inches though. Just a little too south. Be interesting to see what does make it up there. What an impressive map though...hooley dooley!
Usually the SW ones that miss Lennox are still huge on the Ballina bar and there was nothing that significant there this arvo.
Yeah you'd think that'd have to be picking up something! Weird stuff.
If it gets to Coffs, it should get here.
Big wave session right now North Bondi. Heaving.
Smaller by two feet in Cooly today. Fun high tide bank: the E energy still far outweighed the S
I'd welcome a flat spell for some crisp, clear Autumn weather right now, le sigh. Fiji long range looks promising though.
Tweed offshore kicking
These big south swells always seem to be a hit or miss north of cape byron.
If you remember back to the end of July, start of august last year, we had a south swell @ 13 foot 12 seconds 165 degrees. That wrapped around 4-6 foot, even into the sheltered corners of north facing breaks, with some 4 foot kirra.
Now with this swell, a touch smaller than July last year, but with about the same period and angle, I was at least expecting some oversized 6 foot dbah this morning, but it looked like it was barely pushing 4 foot.
Still an incon 3-4ft here,
It never showed.
Pumping somewhere between Forster and Coffs. Had to cop a flogging but the reward was worth it!
Nice one Pops- how big?
Solid at home today. 6ft sets. Let the rip take me out the back. First time in 6 yrs surfing the break I couldn’t get across to the section I usually surf. The south to north sweep was so strong I couldnt fight it. Felt like the superbank current on a cyclone swell. Let it float me down to another section. Surfed bigger swells there but never had to work that hard. A lot of work for 1 wave.
South of Coffs?
