Alright, this is Rusty. Let's have a look at what's on the cards for Agate and Pearl Street.
To be straight with you, the next week and a half is looking pretty flat and frustrating. We've got a long stretch of small, weak swell and mostly onshore or cross-onshore winds that are just going to chop it up. The water temp is sitting at 67°F, which is pretty much bang on average for this time of year, so no surprises there.
The first real glimmer of hope doesn't come until Saturday, July 18th. That morning, the wind drops right out and goes glassy. The swell is tiny at 2ft, coming from the SW with a long period of 18 seconds, which is a proper groundswell. The energy is still weak (277), but if any break is going to work with that little bit of juice, it's a reef. On the glass, it might just be a little fun, clean ride.
Then, we get a bit of a pulse on Sunday, July 19th. The swell picks up, with a mix building. The standout is Sunday afternoon, with the swell hitting 6ft out of the S, with a period of 14 seconds. The combined energy jumps up to 1588, which is a solid, moderate push. The wind is onshore from the WSW though, so it's going to be a bit lumpy. It's not perfect, but it's the biggest, most powerful surf we've seen in the outlook. For a stronger surfer, that's the one to circle on the calendar.
The following Monday morning, July 20th, holds some decent size at 4ft, S swell, but the wind is cross-onshore again. The long period of 11 seconds still has some punch to it, and the energy is moderate at 626, but it's a bit of a battle with the wind.
Overall, if you're hanging out for a wave, the glassy morning of Saturday, July 18th, is the best bet for a clean, if small, session. The biggest and most powerful swell arrives on Sunday, July 19th, but it comes with a messy onshore wind. That's the pick of the two-week window.
