Capricornia Coastal Waters

St Lawrence to Burnett Heads
Wind
Southerly 15 to 20 knots, reaching up to 30 knots offshore during the day.
Seas
1.5 to 2.5 metres.
1st Swell
Northeast to southeasterly below 1 metre inshore, increasing to 2 to 4 metres offshore.
Weather
Mostly sunny. 50% chance of showers offshore south of Cape Capricorn, near zero chance elsewhere.
Weather Situation
The combination of a high [1033 hPa] centred over the Tasman Sea and a deepening low [999 hPa] off the southern Queensland coast is leading to a tight pressure gradient. This in turn is driving strong to gale force southerly winds and powerful seas across the southern Queensland waters. The low will move away to the northeast over the weekend, allowing winds and seas to slowly abate.
