This weekend and next week (Jun 2 - 8)

Tomorrow is expected to start small to tiny, but a new long-period W/SW groundswell should build through the day, generated by an intense and tight low in our western swell window the last couple of days.

A fetch of severe-gale to storm-force W/SW winds were seen, but not ideally in our swell window.

Still we should see building surf to 1-2ft through tomorrow with a light morning W/NW breeze, giving into SE sea breezes as the swell peaks.

Similar winds are due on Sunday as the swell eases from 1-2ft.

Unfortunately for the rest of the forecast period there's nothing significant at all on the cards besides tiny levels of W/SW swell.

A vigorous though poor tracking and poorly aimed low will develop south of WA and project south-east through our south-western swell window, with a slither of severe-gale to storm-force winds produced in our swell window.

This may generate 2ft waves later Wednesday and Thursday morning under a N'ly breeze, but we'll review this Monday. Otherwise check out the East Coast forecast.

Have a great weekend!
