Melbourne - big waves for Christmas
A recent report on the SwellNet website indicated that this year is shaping up very well for surfers along the East Coast of Australia. All wave models indicate that a low pressure system will start to deepen to the east of Tasmania on Christmas Day, setting up a broad and strong Southerly fetch through the Tasman Sea.
A strong high to the south of the Great Bight will contribute to the size and strength of the fetch. It will also help to drag very cold air up across Tasmania and southern Victoria on Christmas Day.
The swell from this system looks like peaking mid week along the East Coast.
This year the timing of the Tasman low looks excellent for East Coast surfers as we move into the holiday period.
So wax those boards and get ready for some nice waves!
