The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's have a look at what's on the menu for the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, it’s a bit of a slow start. We’ve got a few days of small, messy stuff coming through, but nothing that’s gonna get the heart racing. The first real chance of a decent wave is gonna be around Tuesday, August 5th. We’re looking at some early morning glass down at Ann Street Peaks with a clean 3 ft of east swell, period around 10 seconds. The combined energy is moderate (170), and with that WSW offshore breeze, it’ll be clean as a whistle. It’s surfable, but it’s pretty ordinary—nothing to write home about. The water temp is 68°, which is a bit colder than normal for this time of year by about a degree.
After that, the wind turns onshore and the energy drops off again. Thursday the 6th has a brief window of clean, cross-off conditions in the morning with the same 2 ft east swell, but the energy is weak (85). It’s a tiny wave, pure and simple.
There’s a bit of a gap in quality until we get to Monday, August 10th. Now this one is a standout. The morning session at Ann Street Peaks is looking clean with a 4 ft east swell, period 9 seconds, and a cross-off wind from the northwest. The combined energy is solid at 276. It’s not huge, but it’s the best we’ve got in the whole run. The offshore flow will have it looking tidy, and it’s a beach and reef setup, so it should offer up some fun little peaks. This is the one to circle on the calendar.
After that, the rest of the window is a bit of a struggle. The wind swings onshore and the swell fades away to tiny 2 ft to 2 ft stuff with weak energy. Tuesday the 18th and Wednesday the 19th see a bit of a bump in swell to 3 ft to 4 ft, but the period is short (6 to 8 seconds) and the wind is cross-onshore, so it’s gonna be choppy and messy. Not worth the paddle.
So, the clear winner here is Monday morning, August 10th. That’s your best bet for a clean, fun wave. Everything else is either too small, too windy, or just plain ordinary.
Rusty.
