The Lowdown
Right, folks. Rusty here. Gotta say, lookin' at the next couple of weeks for the local stretch, it’s a bit of a flat spell to be honest. There’s something on the horizon, but we’ve got to be patient.
The main story for the entire 16-day window is a whole lot of nothing for the first week, with hardly any wave energy that’s worth paddling out for. We're staring at a gap from now all the way up to the morning of Thursday, August 6th. That's where we finally see a pulse of energy, but even then, it's not exactly a classic.
The one spot that has anything going for it is Anglet - Corsaires. The first real chance to get wet and not just get bounced around comes in on Thursday morning, August 6th. We’ll see a NW swell around 4ft, with a period of 9 seconds pushing in with moderate energy (187). The wind is looking like a light cross-offshore breeze from the ENE, which should keep the lines clean. The water temp is sitting at 76°, which is much warmer than normal for this time of year. It’s honestly a shame the swell is so modest, because the conditions that morning are almost perfect. The afternoon turns messy though, with the NNW wind picking up.
After that, the surf drops out again. There is a brief tease on the morning of Friday, August 14th. We’ll see the swell jump to about 5ft from the NNW, with a short 7-second period and moderate energy (186). The winds are forecast to be glassy, so it’ll look clean. But at that size and with the short period, it’s going to be a bit of a bumpy, closed-out mess on the sets. It's just not got enough period to hold together on that beach.
All in all, we’re looking at a pretty dire run for almost the whole 16-day window. Aside from that brief Thursday morning window, there's nothing worth planning a session around. Forecasts can change, but right now, it’s a time to clean the wetsuit and wait.
Rusty.
