The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's get straight into it for our local stretch. If we're being honest, the outlook for the next 16 days is pretty grim for paddle surfing. We've got a long, flat spell with nothing worth getting excited about.
The water temp is sitting at a very warm 84° yesterday morning at Anse de Rémire (L'apcat), which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year. But that’s about the only highlight.
We start off with weak energy. Wednesday morning the 9th had a combined swell energy of just 96 (weak), a tiny 2ft NE windswell with a short period of 8 seconds. And that cross-onshore wind from the ESE at 9 mph is just chopping it all up. It stays like that all the way through.
Really, there’s no standout day to even recommend. The swell is almost always under 3ft, the period rarely gets above 9 seconds, and we get hammered by a relentless cross-onshore breeze from the east and southeast. The waves are small, weak, and messy. It’s the same story morning and afternoon: "poor surf conditions."
There is a tiny uptick in size from the 18th to the 20th, where we see some 3ft to 4ft swells, with the combined energy climbing to a moderate 145 on the afternoon of Sunday the 20th. But even then, the period is a short 6 to 7 seconds, and the wind is still cross-onshore, so it'll be choppy and weak. For a spot that's exposed to the NE but we’re getting ENE and E winds, the direction is off, making it a blown-out, junky mess. With the waves being this small and the conditions poor, this setup honestly looks more interesting for kite surfing than for paddle surfing.
For the rest of the window into the 24th, it's the same old story: weak energy, tiny swell, and onshore winds. There’s just no chance for a clean, lined-up wave in this 16-day outlook.
Just a dry, frustrating run for us. Forecasts can change though, so we keep an eye on it.
Rusty.
