- Caution
- Large and powerful surf conditions are expected to be hazardous for coastal activities such as crossing bars by boat and rock fishing.
- 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.
