The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Let’s chew the fat on what’s coming up for Noosa – Alexandria Bay.
Right off the bat, it’s a pretty flat spell for the next couple of weeks. We’ve got a long stretch with nothing that’ll get you out of bed. The first sign of any real energy doesn’t show up until Sunday the 9th, and even then, it’s not much.
The first decent window is Sunday morning, 9th August. The swell is a weak 3ft from the east, with a period of 9 seconds. The combined energy is modest (155). The real beauty here is the glassy conditions – that’s a major plus. The water temp is sitting at 69°F, which is about average for the time of year. It’s surfable, but the waves are ordinary.
Monday the 10th offers a bit of hope in the afternoon. The swell drops to 2ft from the east, but the wind swings offshore from the WSW at 9 mph, cleaning things right up. It’s still only small, very ordinary surf, but clean. The energy is low (74).
Tuesday the 11th morning is similar – clean, offshore wind from the west at 6 mph, with that same 2ft east swell. Again, small and clean.
After that, the wind goes messy and the swell stays tiny, with a few little bumps but nothing you’d call a session. Then from the 16th of August, the swell picks up significantly, but the wind is onshore and strong, with rain showers. Swell heights climb to 7ft to 7ft from the east-southeast, with energy readings jumping into the hundreds and even over a thousand (1011) on the 18th. But the wind is cross-onshore at 15 to 19 mph, making it lumpy, choppy, and just plain ugly. That’s more of a kite-surfing setup than a paddle-surfing one. The period is short (6 to 9 seconds), so it’s not going to be well-shaped either.
Honestly, the standout here is Sunday morning 9th August for the glassy conditions, and maybe Monday 10th afternoon or Tuesday 11th morning for the clean, offshore wind. But it’s all very small and ordinary. For expert-level waves, there’s nothing in this window. It’s a quiet stretch.
Rusty.
