The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's be straight up about the next couple of weeks for this area. The honest truth is, we're looking at a long, lean stretch of tiny, wind-affected surf for the vast majority of the 16-day forecast window. The kind of swell that just doesn't have enough push or period to make much of anything happen.
We kick off on Sunday, the 16th of August, with a weak 3ft WNW swell (110 combined energy) that's barely holding on. The morning has a light cross-onshore breeze, but the water is a noticeably warm 85°F, about a touch warmer than we normally see at this time of year. Still, the conditions are marginal at best, and by the afternoon a moderate cross-onshore wind kicks up and ruins it. From Monday the 17th all the way through to Friday the 28th of August, it's a grim run of tiny waves (1ft to 2ft) and short periods of 5 to 7 seconds. On top of that, almost every day has onshore or cross-onshore winds. Even the cleanest day, Thursday the 20th, only has 2ft waves with a 5-second period. There's almost no energy in the water (most days under 30 combined energy), and the surf is useless for paddling.
The only real blip on the radar, and it's still not great, comes right at the end of the period. On Saturday the 29th of August, we see a pulse of 4ft WNW swell (207 combined energy) moving in. The period is still a short 8 seconds, but the morning has a slight offshore wind. It's still considered marginal surf, but it's at least something. It ticks up to 5ft in the afternoon (293 combined energy), but the wind swings onshore again, making it messy. Sunday the 30th offers a similar-sized 5ft swell but with an onshore breeze.
Bottom line: there are zero standouts here. The surf is simply too small and the wind too often on the nose. If you're desperate for a splash, maybe try the morning of the 29th of August for the most energy, but don't expect much.
Rusty.
