Weekend Surf Report South Coast NSW 5th -7th April 2024
Surfline reports
Incoming: Classic Autumn Surf For NSW
What a vision! Powered-up ENE swell and two days of offshore winds.
- Deepening trough helps develop strong Tasman winds
- Punchy ENE swell to light up southern regions
- Winds swinging offshore on Sunday
We’re in for a treat this Sunday and Monday from the mid-north coast down to southern NSW. These surf zones are setting up for some solid swell energy combined with offshore wind conditions, thanks to a deepening trough along the coast interacting with a powerful high pressure system in the southern Tasman..
It won’t be easy in the lead-up to this magic. During Friday and Saturday, the trough/high pressure combo will drive a gale-force E-ENE fetch in the western Tasman and develop a solid ENE swell in the process, while also producing some rather feral coastal conditions: onshore wind, rain, and stormy windswell.
Thanks to the fetch angle, the swell will have a varied impact up and down the coast, but south of Sydney is likely to see the brunt of it, with peak size probable through Saturday night.
