The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again. Let's break it down in feet and Fahrenheit.
Right off the bat, Anse Gaulette is taking a beating. Over the next 16 days, we've got a solid southern swell trying to show up, but the wind is just not playing ball. For the first week, from Saturday the 12th all the way through to the 22nd, it's a long stretch of poor conditions. The wind is stuck out of the southeast, blowing cross-on or cross-shore at 12 to 18 mph, keeping the ocean all choppy and lumpy.
That first Saturday morning kicks off with a 6ft swell from the south (moderate energy of 786), but it's already messy with that cross-onshore wind. The water temp is 82°F, which is a touch warmer than usual for this time of year. It doesn't get any better. Sunday and Monday are more of the same, with the swell holding around 6ft to 6ft but the wind never letting up. By Tuesday the 15th, the swell pushes up to 7ft and then 8ft, but with 18-25 mph cross-onshore winds and a short 8-second period, it's just a washing machine. This is looking more like a kite-surfing day than a paddle session. The wave energy jumps into a strong range on the 17th and 18th, peaking at 1720 on Friday morning with a 8ft swell and a 10-second period, but that cross wind still ruins any chance of a clean wave.
The only time worth a look is Thursday the 17th and Friday the 18th. The energy is high, 1045 to 1720, with 8ft to 8ft swell from the SSE, which is close to the optimum south direction. But it's big and lumpy. That size is for experts only, and with the wind, it's a real gamble. For the everyday surfer, this window is a bust.
We finally see the swell drop and the wind ease a little around the 25th, with a 5ft swell and a cross wind, giving a marginal shot. Bottom line: Anse Gaulette is consistent for swell, so this dry spell won't last forever, but for now, save your energy.
