Wind and wave forecasts are averages. Wind gusts can be 40 per cent stronger than the forecast, and stronger still in squalls and thunderstorms. Maximum waves can be twice the forecast height.
A ridge of high pressure over Tasmania will persist over the coming days, with a weak cold front to clip the south of the state on Saturday morning. The high centre will move into the Tasman Sea on Sunday and direct a northerly flow over Tasmania, ahead of another cold front that is expected to weaken and stall over Tasmania during Monday.
