The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let me break down what we've got for Alykes.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you – this 16-day stretch looks like a real bummer for surf. We're looking at a long, blank run with nothing to get excited about. The few tiny blips of swell that show up are just too weak to do anything. From now through September 11th, there isn't a single session I could point you to. The first real shot of anything, if you can call 1ft with a 3-second period anything, is a brief flicker on the morning of Saturday, August 29th, but the energy is practically non-existent (1). That's not surf, that's a lake ripple. We get clean mornings with glassy conditions and offshore winds here and there, but without any swell pushing in, you're just looking at a flat, pretty sea. The water's running about 82.9°F which is much warmer than normal for this time of year, but that doesn't help when there's no waves. It's a tough run, but for this area, when it goes quiet, it can stay quiet. Forecasts can change, but based on what's on the table, there are no good surf options here in this entire 16-day window.
