The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. Let’s look at what’s coming down the line.
First week’s been flat as a pancake, but there’s a pulse building for the second week. The only break in the game is Boiling Pot at Noosa, and it’s been quiet for a while.
The first real tickle is Thursday 30 July – a tiny 1ft of ESE groundswell with a 13-second period, with a moderate offshore S wind at 12 mph. Clean, but small. The combined energy is weak (82). Barely surfable.
Friday 31 July shows 4ft of short-period E swell (7 seconds) with cross-offshore SSE wind at 16 mph. Energy is moderate (162), but not great quality.
Saturday 1 August morning is a step up: 4ft of SSE swell (6 seconds) with clean offshore S wind at 12 mph. Combined energy is moderate (226). It’s building.
Sunday 2 August morning is the first proper standout: 6ft of ESE swell (7 seconds) with a gentle cross-offshore breeze from the east-southeast at 9 mph. Strong energy (312). Fun, punchy size for experienced surfers. Water temp is 69°, about average for winter.
Monday 3 August hangs in with 5ft of E swell (7 seconds) and light cross-offshore wind, energy moderate (251).
Tuesday 4 August morning is top shelf: 4ft of E swell (8 seconds) with glassy conditions – a light SSW breeze at 3 mph. Energy moderate (201). The Boiling Pot will be smooth as silk. This is a ripper.
Mid-second week gets more wind with 6ft to 6ft of short-period SSE swell (5-7 seconds) and stronger cross-offshore winds. Energy hits 423, but it’ll be messy. Better for kite surfing than a paddle.
Saturday 8 August morning is a beauty: 3ft of SE groundswell with a solid 11-second period, light S offshore wind at 6 mph. Strong energy (317). Clean, lined-up runners.
Sunday 9 August morning is the pick of the entire run: 4ft of SE groundswell (11 seconds) with glass conditions – a light S breeze at 3 mph. Strong energy (306). Long period, clean, and the point will be working like a dream.
After that, it fades. Monday 10 August drops to 3ft with onshore wind and chop. A couple of cleaner 3ft windows on Tuesday 11 August, but it’s winding down.
Bottom line: the first week is a skip. The standout is Sunday 9 August morning at Boiling Pot (Noosa) – glassy, 4ft of long-period SE groundswell, strong energy. That’s the one to circle on the calendar.
Rusty.
