As of this morning our deep Tasman low (984hPa) is still slow moving although high pressure support has slipped in under the low with the strongest winds now aimed more at Tasmania.

The current building swell will ease slowly tomorrow as winds slowly strengthen. Next week looks fun as well.
We’ll see the low meander towards the South Island for the remainder of the week, with large swells on the ease across Southern/Central NSW, much less size into the sub-tropics. A trough is sitting off the SEQLD coast directing moist SE winds along the region.
The Mid Coast looks fun into the end of the week with larger surf for the South Coast from later Sunday.

The end of the week isn't great, with improving, building swells due through the weekend thanks to a strong node of the Long Wave Trough.
Fun swell this weekend, then slow again.
A strong swell tomorrow will be spoilt by onshore winds, better Wednesday with some decent activity due into next week.
These winds will coalesce later today into a more organised fetch of S-SE gales as the system slowly tracks southwards then S/SE. As a result we’ll see elevated wave heights from the E/SE-S/SE right into mid-week, augmented by some long range S/SE groundswell from another ice shelf fetch in the Ross Sea region adjacent to Antarctica.
