Auckland Channel Weather Forecast

Capricornia Coastal Waters

Wind

South to southeasterly 15 to 20 knots, reaching up to 25 knots offshore south of Cape Capricorn early in the morning.

Seas

1 to 1.5 metres, increasing to 1.5 to 2 metres offshore south of Cape Capricorn.

1st Swell

Northeast to southeasterly 2 to 4 metres, tending east to southeasterly 2 to 3 metres around midday.

Weather

Partly cloudy. 50% chance of showers offshore, near zero chance elsewhere.

Weather Situation

The combination of a high [1035 hPa] centred over the Tasman Sea and a low [1000 hPa] south of New Caledonia is enhancing both seas and swell across the southern Queensland waters. The low will move away to the northeast over the weekend, allowing conditions to slowly abate.
