The Lowdown
Alright crew, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on the cards for Alykes over the next couple of weeks. Straight up, this is a tough one. The outlook is barren for almost the entire forecast period. We’re looking at a long, dry spell with nothing to get excited about until the very tail end of the 16-day window.
For the first 16 days, from Saturday the 5th of September right through to late on Monday the 14th of September, there is literally no surf at all. Just flat, calm conditions with a mix of glassy mornings and clean afternoons. It’s beautiful weather for a swim or a paddleboard, but for a surfboard? Forget it. There is a 10-day gap with zero swell. This kind of blank run is pretty normal for this area when there’s no energy in the water.
The only glimmer of hope comes right at the end. On Tuesday the 15th of September, we finally see a tiny pulse of swell. In the afternoon, a small 2ft wave from the NW shows up, with a short period of 6 seconds. The combined swell energy is weak at just 21, so it’ll be pretty weak and crumbly. The wind is offshore from the WSW at 15 km/h, which will keep it clean. This is really only for beginners on a foamie. Don't expect much. That’s it for the whole outlook.
After that, it’s back to nothing for the rest of the week through to Sunday the 20th of September. A long, quiet stretch.
Rusty.
