The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here again. I’m looking at the same picture for Batts Rock, just in feet and miles per hour. And I gotta tell ya, it’s a hard watch. No decent surf in the whole 16-day outlook. The first sign of any wave energy pops up on Thursday, 20th August – we’re talking a tiny 0.7ft wave from the north, with an 8-second period and combined energy of just 5. The wind is offshore, blowing fresh from the east, so it’d look pretty on the surface, but there’s no grunt. Not a wave worth chasing.
Everything before that, from now until Wednesday, 19th August, is completely flat. After that little hiccup of a swell, the rest of the run from the 21st onward is either zero or that same pathetic 0.3ft to 0.7ft junk, with combined energy never getting above 5. On Wednesday, 26th August, there’s a 0.3ft pulse with a longer period of 11 seconds, but still only 2 units of energy – basically a lake. Water temp is about 84°, which is average for the season, but that doesn’t help when there’s nothing to ride.
Batts Rock is a point break that’s inconsistent anyway, and it needs a proper north swell. The wind is blowing offshore from the east, which would normally be clean, but with no waves it’s just a waste. This is about as empty a forecast as I’ve seen. If you’re into kiting, the steady easterly trades will be cranking, but for surfing? Save the energy. It’s a big, fat flat spell.
Rusty.
