The Lowdown
Alright, let's get into it. This is Rusty, and I'm looking at what's coming up for Ann Street Peaks.
Honestly, right now, it's a bit of a slow start. The surf is pretty small and the wind is just not playing ball. We've got a real dry spell here for the first week or so. The water's sitting at 68°F, which is a bit colder than what we usually see this time of year, so definitely grab that extra rubber.
For the first week, from the end of July right through to the 6th of August, we're looking at a lot of poor conditions. The swell is tiny, mostly under 3ft, and the wind is almost always cross or cross-onshore, messing up any chance of a clean face. There's a brief moment on the morning of Wednesday the 5th where it goes glassy, but with only 3ft from the east and a period of 8 seconds, it's really just a knee-high dribbler. Not worth getting excited about.
Then we hit a bit of a gap. The 7th and 8th are still pretty average. We get a bit more size on the 8th with 4ft from the east, but the wind is still junk. The combined energy is moderate at 154, but it's just not clean.
Now, the real glimmer of hope, the standout, is way out there. We're looking at Thursday the 13th of August. The morning is clean with a cross-offshore wind from the WSW, and waves around 3ft from the ESE. But the afternoon is where it's at. The wind swings to a light offshore from the W, the swell is a clean 3ft from the ESE, and the period stretches out to a nice 12 seconds, giving it some real push. The combined energy is 240 (moderate), and the report says "expect good surf conditions." This is the best on offer in the whole 16-day window. It's a long way off, so don't set your watch to it yet, but it's a promising call.
Then Friday the 14th of August morning looks tempting too. Dead glassy, 3ft from the ESE with a solid 11-second period, and an energy of 208. That could be a really fun, clean morning session at Ann Street Peaks before the crowds filter in.
The rest of the second week? It's more of the same small stuff. Some clean mornings on the 11th and 12th with offshore winds, but the waves are tiny, barely 2ft. It's a waiting game.
So, the takeaway: The first week is a write-off. The standout is Thursday the 13th and Friday the 14th of August. Keep your eyes on that window.
Rusty.
